DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Remote sensing has numerous applications in agricultu
 re\, environmental management\, military\, as well as other areas. Two com
 mon technologies for remote sensing are drones and wireless sensor network
 s. In both technologies\, power consumption is a key consideration\, becau
 se system capabilities are power-limited\, because both drones and wireles
 s sensors are battery-operated. In this talk we analyze three designs for 
 power-saving remote sensing systems: one using drones with remote solar-po
 wered charging stations\; one using wireless sensors with repeaters or str
 ategically-placed wires\; and one using a combination of drones and wirele
 ss sensors that takes advantage of the strengths of both technologies.\n\n
