Abstract(in English) This paper introduces a new diversity-achieving relaying model and protocol for a network connected through a small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). We consider the scenario where the UAV circles around above the fixed area automatically and it relays the signals sent from the several ground access points (GAPs) to a single base station (BS) separately located with long distance. In this paper, focusing on the uplink scenario, we show that by utilizing the mobility of UAV, a virtual multiuser MIMO system can be implemented even if a UAV is equipped with only a single antenna. The simulation results show that our proposed model and protocol can significantly improve the performance in terms of bit error rate due to the increased diversity gain.
