Combining technological breakthroughs such as artificial intelligence and edge computing, the application of UAVs is accelerating, especially the increasing communication requirements in low - altitude environments. In the low - altitude urban market scenario, UAVs can not only undertake tasks such as urban monitoring and logistics distribution, but also play an important role in emergency communication and disaster relief. The complexity of the low - altitude urban market scenario makes the communication between UAVs face significant challenges. In particular, factors such as dense buildings and signal multipath propagation have a great impact on signal transmission. Therefore, accurate modeling of the UAV - to - UAV channel in low - altitude scenarios has become the key to improving UAV communication performance.
