Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) have been actively employed for tasks that are challenging for humans, such as scenarios like battlefield and disaster. Swarm unmanned systems, comprising UAVs and UGVs, experience dynamic additions or removals of unmanned aircraft. In this paper, we propose a rule caching-based recovery technique for achieving rapid forwarding rule establishment for additional UAVs deployed for recovery in wireless Software-defined Networking (SDN) based swarm unmanned systems. To validate the proposed algorithm, we conducted experiments by setting up a testbed using ODROID and a controller. Our results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm improves forwarding rule establishment performance by up to 50.3%.
