 upervisor: Professor Ozgur Ercetin) Visiting Researcher\, Carleton Univers
 ity\n\nABSTRACT: The recent evolution of ambient backscattering technology
  has the potential to provide long-range and low power wireless communicat
 ions. In this work\, we study the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)-assisted b
 ackscatter networks where the UAV acts both as a mobile power transmitter 
 and as an information receiver. We aim to maximize the number of successfu
 lly decoded bits while minimizing the UAV’s flight time by optimizing it
 s altitude. Power-domain NOMA scheme is employed in the uplink. An optimiz
 ation framework is presented to identify the trade-off between numerous Ne
 twork parameters\, such as UAV’s altitude\, number of ground devices\, a
 nd backscatter coefficients. Numerical results show that the optimal altit
 ude is achievable for various network setups and impact of backscattering 
 reflection coefficients on the maximum network throughput is significant.\
