  text: 'With the trend towards smart cities, the use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
    (UAVs) is becoming more and more diverse. An economical and insightful way to
    study the use of UAVs in cities is through the utilization of computer simulations.
    However, currently available simulators are only of limited use to investigate
    such scenarios: often they have been developed for a dedicated use case, can only
    handle single UAVs, or the software was not made available with an open license.
    In this paper, we present AirMobiSim, a modular and microscopic UAV simulation
    framework, which is available under a GPLv2 license. AirMobiSim provides the basis
    for the creation of kinematic and energy models for different UAV types. It can
    support an arbitrary number of UAVs and can be coupled with other simulators via
    open interfaces, for example to examine systems using wireless communication between
    UAVs. We furthermore present our approach for model-building and show that AirMobiSim
    can already accurately reproduce existing work. We also highlight current limitations
    and show prospects for future work.'
