Abstract :
Similar to MANET mobile peer to peer networks (Mobile ad-hoc network) and VANET vehicle peer to peer networks (Vehicular ad-hoc network), FANET are special type of peer to peer ad-hoc networks and they are based on unmanned aerial birds (UAV). Such communications are not only necessary for observing and monitoring, but also they are used for better harmonizing of bird movements and increasing the level of security (for example preventing accidents). FANET specifications are consist of high node mobility, dynamic changing of topology and three-dimensional movements and this has created other serious problems for network connections and it requires protocols with special goals. Node interactions are also limited because of allocated frequency resources, node energy, radio signaling conditions and so on. Even though, network nodes randomly interact with each other, connections between pairs of nodes are possible by means of intermediate chains. Network nodes, in addition to accepting and processing data, are supposed to get the direction to the intermediate nodes in the final destination path inside the network. In this article, we will try to review routing protocols in Flying Ad-hoc networks.
