Abstract

The importance of 5G communication in today's world is requisite. The communication over 4G communications has led to congestion and will not meet the demands of the growing needs. Since the number of connected devices has been on the rise, optimization and improvement are the keys to further innovation. The hexagonal architecture of the octahedron was used to construct a 3D cellular network architecture. This octahedron cell architecture in the combination of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV—mostly known as DRONES in many parts of the world) helps develop 5G networks with the instance of Millimeter Wave (mm-Wave) approach in communication systems. In this paper, the proposed method is the Energy Efficient Hierarchical Clustering Approach formulated to minimize the power usage of users (UE of the drone) and trace latency for different conditions during transmission. This approach helps in optimizing the latency of the system, Signal-Interference Noise Ratio (SINR) based communication spectral efficiency, and cumulative distribution function concerning SINR results in communication channel strength in sharing the information without dropping. The proposed approach initially develops energy infliction-based clusters and decides the optimal routing path for communication that allows 50% minimization in average latency compared with existing schemes.
