Location-Aware Caching in an Aerial Network |
摘要 |
Methods and systems are disclosed herein that may help to provide location-aware caching and/or location-specific service profiles in an aerial-vehicle network. An exemplary method may be carried out by an aerial vehicle that is at a location associated with the first geographic area in an aerial-vehicle network that includes a plurality of defined geographic areas, and may involve: (a) determining that a location-aware cache of an aerial vehicle should be updated with user-data associated with the first geographic area; and (b) in response to determining that the location-aware cache should be updated: (i) sending a location-aware cache-update request; (ii) receiving, as a response to the location-aware cache-update request, user-data that corresponds to the first geographic area; and (iii) storing the user-data that corresponds to the first geographic area in a location-aware cache of the aerial vehicle. |

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
determining that an aerial vehicle is located in a border area corresponding to a first geographic area in an aerial-vehicle network comprising a plurality of moveable aerial vehicles, wherein the aerial-vehicle network comprises a plurality of geographic areas that includes the first geographic area; based at least in part on the determination that the aerial vehicle is located in the border area, determining that a location-aware cache of an aerial vehicle should be updated with first data associated with the first geographic area; and in response to determining that the location-aware cache should be updated:
sending a location-aware cache-update request;receiving, as a response to the location-aware cache-update request, first data that corresponds to the first geographic area; andstoring the first data that corresponds to the first geographic area in a location-aware cache of the aerial vehicle. |
