Abstract: In recent decade, diagnosing the fault in Unmanned Autonomous Vehicle (UAV) based Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) has received a little attention by the researchers. The limitations of UAV-WSN environment possibly affects the fault diagnosis. The limitations associated with UAV-WSN conditions are considered as the scope of present study in diagnosing the fault in network. The study focuses mainly on improving the overall lifespan of network and further it tends to increase the network scalability. Since, the overall network lifetime and scalability reduces as the condition of the network worsens. Hence, the observation on network becomes poor in identifying the faults associated with the network. To resolve the issue, anAdaptive Reinforcement Learning is proposed in the study for the fault detection of flying sensor nodes in UAV-WSN. This approach diagnoses the faults in the network in an effective way and improves the overall efficiency of the network.
