A Simulator for FANETs Using 5G Vehicle-to-Everything Communications and Named-Data Networking

Networking and Internet Architecture 2025-10-17 v1

Abstract

This work presents a simulator designed for the validation, evaluation, and demonstration of flying adhoc networks (FANETs) using 5G vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications and the named-data networking (NDN) paradigm. The simulator integrates the ns-3 network simulator and the Zenoh NDN protocol, enabling realistic testing of applications that involve the multi-hop communication among multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
