Autonomous Navigation and Deployment of UAVs for Communication, Surveillance and Delivery

Authoritative resource offering coverage of communication, surveillance, and delivery problems for teams of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)

Autonomous Navigation and Deployment of UAVs for Communication, Surveillance and Delivery studies various elements of deployment of networks of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) base stations for providing communication to ground users in disaster areas, covering problems like ground traffic monitoring, surveillance of environmental disaster areas (e.g. brush fires), using UAVs in rescue missions, converting UAV video surveillance, and more. The work combines practical problems, implementable and computationally efficient algorithms to solve these problems, and mathematically rigorous proofs of each algorithm's convergence and performance.

One such example provided by the authors is a novel biologically inspired motion camouflage algorithm to covert video surveillance of moving targets by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). All autonomous navigation and deployment algorithms developed in the book are computationally efficient, easily implementable in engineering practice, and based only on limited information on other UAVs of each and the environment.

Sample topics discussed in the work include:

  • Deployment of UAV base stations for communication, especially with regards to maximizing coverage and minimizing interference
  • Deployment of UAVs for surveillance of ground areas and targets, including surveillance of both flat and uneven areas
  • Navigation of UAVs for surveillance of moving areas and targets, including disaster areas and ground traffic monitoring
  • Autonomous UAV navigation for covert video surveillance, offering extensive coverage of optimization-based navigation
  • Integration of UAVs and public transportation vehicles for parcel delivery, covering both one-way and round trips

Professionals in navigation and deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles, along with researchers, engineers, scientists in intersecting fields, can use Autonomous Navigation and Deployment of UAVs for Communication, Surveillance and Delivery to gain general knowledge on the subject along with practical, precise, and proven algorithms that can be deployed in a myriad of practical situations.

無人機的自主導航與部署:通訊、監控與配送

權威資源,涵蓋無人機(UAV)團隊在通訊、監控和配送方面的問題

無人機的自主導航與部署:通訊、監控與配送 研究了在災區為地面用戶提供通訊的無人機(UAV)基站網絡部署的各種要素,涵蓋了地面交通監控、環境災害區域(例如:灌木火災)的監控、在救援任務中使用無人機、轉換無人機視頻監控等問題。該著作結合了實際問題、可實施且計算效率高的算法來解決這些問題,並對每個算法的收斂性和性能提供數學嚴謹的證明。

作者提供的一個例子是,一種新穎的生物啟發運動偽裝算法,用於無人機(UAV)對移動目標的隱蔽視頻監控。書中開發的所有自主導航和部署算法都具有計算效率高、易於在工程實踐中實施的特點,並且僅基於對其他無人機及環境的有限信息。

該著作中討論的示例主題包括:


  • 無人機基站的部署以進行通訊,特別是關於最大化覆蓋範圍和最小化干擾

  • 無人機的部署以監控地面區域和目標,包括對平坦和不平坦區域的監控

  • 無人機的導航以監控移動區域和目標,包括災區和地面交通監控

  • 無人機的自主導航以進行隱蔽視頻監控,提供基於優化的導航的廣泛覆蓋

  • 無人機與公共交通工具的整合以進行包裹配送,涵蓋單程和往返行程

無人機的導航與部署專業人士,以及相關領域的研究人員、工程師和科學家,可以利用 無人機的自主導航與部署:通訊、監控與配送 獲得該主題的一般知識,並掌握可在各種實際情況中部署的實用、精確且經過驗證的算法。
