Utilizing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) as the relay is an effective technical solution for the wireless communication between ground terminals faraway or obstructed. In this letter, the problems of UAV node placement and communication resource allocation are investigated jointly for a UAV relaying system for the first time. Multiple communication pairs on the ground, with one rotary-wing UAV serving as relay, are considered. Transmission power, bandwidth, transmission rate, and UAV's position are optimized jointly to maximize the system throughput. An optimization problem is formulated, which is non-convex. The global optimal solution is achieved by transforming the formulated problem to be a monotonic optimization problem.
