In this work, we study the trade-off between the reliability and theinvestment cost of an unmanned aerial system (UAS) consisting of a set ofunmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) carrying radio access nodes, called portableaccess points (PAPs)), deployed to serve a set of ground nodes (GNs). Using theproposed algorithm, a given geographical region is equivalently represented asa set of circular regions, where each circle represents the coverage region ofa PAP. Then, the steady-state availability of the UAS is analytically derivedby modelling it as a continuous time birth-death Markov decision process (MDP).Numerical evaluations show that the investment cost to guarantee a givensteady-state availability to a set of GNs can be reduced by considering thetraffic demand and distribution of GNs.
