Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) networks represent an ecological alternative to truck-based delivery systems, especially in urban areas prone to traffic congestion. In this paper, we envision a delivery system composed of a fleet of UAVs relying on a decentralized infrastructure that includes several service stations providing parcel storage and battery replacement. This innovative delivery system introduces a problem of coordination in task scheduling as drones have limited battery capacities.
