This paper poses the cooperative perimeter-surveillance problem and offers a decentralized solution that accounts for perimeter growth (expanding or contracting) and insertion/deletion …
One typical application of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is the intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance mission, where the objective is to improve situation awareness through …
SAP Quintero, F Papi, DJ Klein, L Chisci… - … IEEE Conference on …, 2010 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This work focuses on optimal routing for two camera-equipped UAVs cooperatively tracking a single target moving on the ground. The UAVs are small fixed-wing aircraft cruising at a …
SAP Quintero, JP Hespanha - Control Engineering Practice, 2014 - Elsevier
This paper considers the problem of a small, fixed-wing UAV equipped with a gimbaled camera autonomously tracking an unpredictable moving ground vehicle. Thus, the UAV …
SAP Quintero, DA Copp… - 2015 American Control …, 2015 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We consider the control of two UAVs tracking an evasive moving ground vehicle. The UAVs are small fixed-wing aircraft equipped with gimbaled cameras and must coordinate their …
C Peterson, DA Paley - Journal of guidance, control, and dynamics, 2011 - arc.aiaa.org
AUTONOMOUS vehicles in the air and ocean provide a cost-effective robust approach for tracking, surveillance, and reconnaissance missions. A cooperating team of vehicles can …
DA Paley, C Peterson - Journal of Guidance, Control, and Dynamics, 2009 - arc.aiaa.org
AUTONOMOUS vehicles provide a robust sensing platform for synoptic and adaptive sampling of spatiotemporal processes in the air and sea. Decentralized control algorithms …
Y Cao, J Muse, D Casbeer… - 52nd IEEE conference on …, 2013 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This paper presents two control algorithms enabling a UAV to circumnavigate an unknown target using range and range rate (ie, the derivative of range) measurements. Given a …
We study the problem of optimally coordinating multiple fixed-wing UAVs to perform vision- based target tracking, which entails that the UAVs are tasked with gathering the best joint …
