However, challenges such as regulatory compliance, data security, energy efficiency, and real-time adaptability limit their widespread implementation. Objective: This study aims to develop a multi-objective optimization framework for UAV-assisted networks that enhances coverage efficiency, reduces latency, and optimizes energy consumption while addressing regulatory and data security challenges. Methods: The proposed framework integrates k-means clustering, genetic algorithms, and real-time adaptation mechanisms. Key metrics: coverage, latency, energy efficiency, and regulatory compliance, were evaluated across urban, suburban, and rural disaster scenarios. Dynamic geofencing, end-to-end encryption, and anomaly detection were incorporated to ensure compliance and secure operations. Results: The framework achieved significant improvements: coverage efficiency increased by 8%, latency reduced by 43%, and battery life extended by 33%. Regulatory compliance rose from 75% to 95%, and data security was enhanced with a 50% improvement in threat detection. The framework demonstrated robust scalability, maintaining high performance across diverse user densities. Conclusion: The study presents a scalable and adaptable UAV-assisted communication framework that addresses operational, regulatory, and security challenges. Its results validate its potential for real-world disaster recovery, paving the way for further innovations in this critical domain.
