Summary: The Internet of Things (IoT) drives the development of sixth-generation (6G) wireless systems, as more data needs to be collected and transmitted due to the emergence of novel IoT applications. However, IoT devices are limited by battery life, transmit power, and processing capacity. Aerial access networks provide favorable communication links and better coverage for IoT devices, while edge computing (such as fog and mobile-edge computing) relocates computing and storage resources to the network edge to support computing-intensive and low-latency IoT applications. The integration of aerial access networks and edge computing, known as aerial computing, is expected to offer both traditional communication services and advanced services for IoT globally.
