We consider the combined problem of frontier exploration in a complex indoor environment while seeking a radio source. To do this in an efficient manner, we incorporate radio signal …
Multi-robot teams that intelligently gather information have the potential to transform industries as diverse as agriculture, space exploration, mining, environmental monitoring …
We consider the problem of drawing a mobile platform such as an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) to a radio frequency (RF) source surrounded by local scatterers. The UAV starts from …
In tunnel-like environments such as road tunnels or mines, a team of networked mobile robots can provide surveillance, search and rescue, or monitoring services. However, these …

Precision-guided airdrop systems have shown considerable accuracy improvements over more widely used unguided systems through high-quality position, velocity, and time …
Radio Frequency transmitters are becoming ubiquitous. For instance people oftencarry around a mobile phone containing several such transmitters. Having theability to detect and …
Wireless networking is challenging in safety, security, and rescue contexts where network infrastructure may be damaged or compromised. Radio communication between ground …
Finding the physical location of a specific network node is a prototypical task for navigation inside a wireless network. In this paper, we consider in depth the implications of wireless …
