ACCOMMODATING MOBILE DESTINATIONS FOR UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a device, a request for a flight path for an unmanned aerial vehicle to travel from a geographical location to an anticipated geographical location associated with a mobile device;
determining, by the device, capability information for the unmanned aerial vehicle based on component information associated with the unmanned aerial vehicle;
receiving, by the device, information associated with a current location, a direction of travel, and a speed of the mobile device;
calculating, by the device, the flight path from the geographical location to the anticipated geographical location associated with the mobile device based on the capability information and based on the information associated with the current location, the direction of travel, and the speed of the mobile device;
generating, by the device, flight path instructions for the flight path; and
providing, by the device, the flight path instructions to the unmanned aerial vehicle to permit the unmanned aerial vehicle to travel, from the geographical location to the anticipated geographical location associated with the mobile device, based on the flight path instructions.

Abstract
A device receives a request for a flight path for a UAV to travel from a location to an anticipated location associated with a mobile device, and determines capability information for the UAV based on component information associated with the UAV. The device receives information associated with a current location, a direction of travel, and a speed of the mobile device, and calculates the flight path from the location to the anticipated location associated with the mobile device based on the capability information and based on the information associated with the current location, the direction of travel, and the speed of the mobile device. The device generates flight path instructions for the flight path, and provides the flight path instructions to the UAV to permit the UAV to travel from the location to the anticipated location associated with the mobile device, based on the flight path instructions.
