Summary

• What is new: Introduction of a three-layer heterogeneous network combining UAV-BSs and HAPS-SMBS to ensure connectivity in disaster-stricken areas.
• Why this is important: Lack of operable terrestrial networks in disaster situations and the challenge in maintaining a stable backhaul link.
• What the research proposes: Deploying UAV-BSs for RAN services and HAPS as SMBS for backhaul, supported by a novel two-layer clustering algorithm for efficient ad-hoc networking.
• Results: Enhanced lifespan and reliability of temporary networks in disaster scenarios through the proposed network architecture and clustering strategy.
