"Nowadays, electronic commerce (e-commerce) gives people a convenient shopping
experience. The express delivery industry and package plays an essential role between ecommerce
entities and customers. From 2015, Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) market expand rapidly, few delivery companies
and B2C companies tried UAV as an alternate delivery method which can enhance customer
package receiving experience and reduce the operational cost. However, the limit of battery and
motors reduce the capability of package volume, FAA laws prohibit UAV over 55lbs operated in
the sky. A low-cost and efficient package deliver solution is a goal for most express delivery
companies. The purpose of this thesis is to find the gap and create an UAV hybrid delivery method that
will impacts the express delivery industry and can be applied to the current electronic commerce
industry and express delivery industry."
