In this paper, we focus on a UAV-aided Flying Ad hoc Network (FANET) with multiple unmanned aerial vehi-cles (UAVs) deployed for power-efficient data transmission to a ground control station (GCS) through multihopping. Our main objective is to enhance overall network performance by investigating the most effective multihop routing structure for efficient data dissemination. Considering the more realistic Rician fading channel for communication conditions, our goal is to maximize network throughput in a multihop UAV relay network by jointly optimizing multihop routing and power allocation (PA) to each UAV within a specified power budget. We reformulate the original optimization problem into two subproblems and propose an algorithm to derive the optimal solution. Additionally, we analyze the system's reliability in terms of packet loss probability (PLP). Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach, offering novel insights in the context of Rician fading channels compared to traditional path loss channel models.
