Abstract
UAV formations can be used to support diverse industries, with applications in entertainment, natural environment, civilian and military spheres. Using UAV formations is more effective than deployment of a single UAV, because multiple UAVs cooperating to complete a mission are able to perform more complex tasks with greater precision and efficiency.
We wish to provide Quality of Service for safety messages through a MAC protocol that appropriately addresses the issue of packet collisions for inter-UAV communication. UAV formations can then be more effective and successful in completing the tasks required, irrespective of the industry or application in question.
