Download or read book Cooperative Path Planning of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles written by Antonios Tsourdos and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-11-09 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An invaluable addition to the literature on UAV guidance and cooperative control, Cooperative Path Planning of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles is a dedicated, practical guide to computational path planning for UAVs. One of the key issues facing future development of UAVs is path planning: it is vital that swarm UAVs/ MAVs can cooperate together in a coordinated manner, obeying a pre-planned course but able to react to their environment by communicating and cooperating. An optimized path is necessary in order to ensure a UAV completes its mission efficiently, safely, and successfully. Focussing on the path planning of multiple UAVs for simultaneous arrival on target, Cooperative Path Planning of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles also offers coverage of path planners that are applicable to land, sea, or space-borne vehicles. Cooperative Path Planning of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles is authored by leading researchers from Cranfield University and provides an authoritative resource for researchers, academics and engineers working in the area of cooperative systems, cooperative control and optimization particularly in the aerospace industry.

Download or read book Shepherding UxVs for Human Swarm Teaming written by Hussein A. Abbass and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-19 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book draws inspiration from natural shepherding, whereby a farmer utilizes sheepdogs to herd sheep, to inspire a scalable and inherently human friendly approach to swarm control. The book discusses advanced artificial intelligence (AI) approaches needed to design smart robotic shepherding agents capable of controlling biological swarms or robotic swarms of unmanned vehicles. These smart shepherding agents are described with the techniques applicable to the control of Unmanned X Vehicles (UxVs) including air (unmanned aerial vehicles or UAVs), ground (unmanned ground vehicles or UGVs), underwater (unmanned underwater vehicles or UUVs), and on the surface of water (unmanned surface vehicles or USVs). This book proposes how smart ‘shepherds’ could be designed and used to guide a swarm of UxVs to achieve a goal while ameliorating typical communication bandwidth issues that arise in the control of multi agent systems. The book covers a wide range of topics ranging from the design of deep reinforcement learning models for shepherding a swarm, transparency in swarm guidance, and ontology-guided learning, to the design of smart swarm guidance methods for shepherding with UGVs and UAVs. The book extends the discussion to human-swarm teaming by looking into the real-time analysis of human data during human-swarm interaction, the concept of trust for human-swarm teaming, and the design of activity recognition systems for shepherding. Presents a comprehensive look at human-swarm teaming; Tackles artificial intelligence techniques for swarm guidance; Provides artificial intelligence techniques for real-time human performance analysis.

Download or read book Path Planning in Three Dimensional Environment Using Feedback Linearization Preprint written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents a control scheme via feedback linearization for three-dimensional cooperative path planning of a class of interconnected systems in general, and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in particular. It is shown that the feedback linearization technique along with a distance varied repulsive profile allows UAVs to converge to the invariant set of a known target location without colliding with other vehicles. Lyapunov stability analysis shows the conditions under which such systems are stable. Also a task assignment algorithm, which is a function of distance between the UAVs and the target, is proposed for dealing with multi-UAV and multi-target scenarios.

Download or read book Point Cloud Based Target Oriented 3D Path Planning for UAVs written by Zhaoliang Zheng and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper explores 3D path planning for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in 3D point cloud environments. Derivative maps such as dense point clouds, mesh maps, octomaps, etc. are frequently used for path planning purposes. A target-oriented 3D path planning algorithm, directly using point clouds to compute optimized trajectories for an UAV, is presented in this article. This approach searches for obstacle-free, low computational cost, smooth, and dynamically feasible paths by analyzing a point cloud of the target environment, using a modified connect RRT-based path planning algorithm, with a k-d tree based obstacle avoidance strategy and three-step optimization. This presented approach bypasses the common 3D map discretization, directly leveraging point cloud data. Following trajectory generation, the algorithm creates way-point based, closed loop quadrotor controls for pitch, roll, and yaw attitude angle as well as dynamics commands for the UAV. Simulations of UAV 3D path planning based on different target points in the point cloud map are presented, showing the effectiveness and feasibility of this approach.
