Abstract In order to maintain electromagnetic silence and avoid external interference, UAV clusters usually use purely azimuthal passive positioning methods to adjust the position of UAVs when attempting formation flights. However, due to the large number of UAVs flying in formation, it is difficult to perform effective localization, although they can keep flying at an altitude based on their own sensors. Therefore, this paper establishes a passive positioning model based on the triangulation method under the condition of pure azimuthal passive positioning, solves the coordinates of the UAV po

Abstract A flight of a UAV formation is an efficient way to implement surveillance and reconnaissance operations. The usage of a few UAVs as a formation instead of a single vehicle allows creating a distributed network of sensors, which decreases the duration of flight missions and enlarges a total field of view. From a practical point of view, implementations of formation flights require taking into account several separate aspects of flight of UAV such as a quick take-off of several aircraft, aggregating all UAVs in the same space to create swarm and collective flight of the formation toward

Abstract In order to ensure that the UAV cluster remains electromagnetically silent during the attempted formation flight, so that the emission of electromagnetic wave signalsj is minimised, a purely azimuthal passive positioning method can be used to adjust the position of the UAVs.

During formation flying, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) may need to arrive at target ahead of schedule by hurry path. Given fixed flight high mode, hurry planning method was proposed based on Adaptive Genetic Algorithm (AGA), which makes the new path shorter by locally adjusting the default path. By full considering the risk of UAV flight, the hurry path got by AGA meets the requirements of the risk cost and time amount in advance. Simulation results show that the path gotten by AGA can better meet the requirements of the time amount in advance, and evade the threat area effectively too.

Purpose This paper aims to propose a multi-agent approach to adaptive control of fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) tracking a moving ground target. The approach implies that the UAVs in a single group must maintain preset phase shift angles while rotating around the target so as to evaluate the target’s movement more accurately. Thus, the controls should ensure that the UAV swarm follows a moving circular path whose center is the target while also attaining and maintaining a circular formation of a specific geometric shape; and the formation control system is capable of self-tuning be

Abstract:

Flying Ad-hoc Network (FANET) is a special member/class of Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) in which the movable nodes are known as by the name of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) that are operated from a long remote distance in which there is no human personnel involved. It is an ad-hoc network in which the UAVs can more in 3D ways simultaneously in the air without any onboard pilot. In other words, this is a pilot free ad-hoc network also known as Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) and the component introduced for such a system is known as UAV. There are many single UAV applications but using multiple

Abstract:

Accurate terrain models are critical for studying the formation and development of slot canyons. However, for slot canyon landforms, it is challenging to generate comprehensive and high-resolution morphological data by individual observation due to the inaccessibility of steep walls on either side and the complexity of the field observation environment, such as variable-slope terrain, partial vegetation cover, and lack of satellite signal. Off-the-shelf surveying techniques, including Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) photogrammetry and Backpack Mobile Laser Scanning (BMLS), facilitate slot canyo

Abstract:

This paper presents a visual-based approach that allows an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) to detect and track a cooperative flying vehicle autonomously using a monocular camera. The algorithms are based on template matching and morphological filtering, thus being able to operate within a wide range of relative distances (i.e., from a few meters up to several tens of meters), while ensuring robustness against variations of illumination conditions, target scale and background. Furthermore, the image processing chain takes full advantage of navigation hints (i.e., relative positioning and own-ship

Abstract:

In coordinated circular motion of a group of autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs or drones), it is important to ensure that collisions between them are avoided. A typical situation occurs when one of the drones in a circular formation needs to overtake the drone ahead. The reason for such an overtake may be due to a given geometry of the UAV formation, when this configuration of a given relative position of the drones has changed for some reason. In this case, the limited maneuverability of UAVs of exactly fixed-wing type requires taking into account the peculiarities of their dynamics i

Abstract:

A primary objective of this research entails the development of an innovative algorithm capable of tracking a drone in real-time. This objective serves as a fundamental requirement across various applications, including collision avoidance, formation flying, and the interception of moving targets. Nonetheless, regardless of the efficacy of any detection algorithm, achieving 100% performance remains unattainable. Deep neural networks (DNNs) were employed to enhance this performance. To facilitate real-time operation, the DNN must be executed within a Deep Learning Processing Unit (DPU), Neural

In this work, the problem of the cooperative visual-based SLAM for the class of multi-UA systems that integrates a lead agent has been addressed. In these kinds of systems, a team of aerial robots flying in formation must follow a dynamic lead agent, which can be another aerial robot, vehicle or even a human. A fundamental problem that must be addressed for these kinds of systems has to do with the estimation of the states of the aerial robots as well as the state of the lead agent. In this work, the use of a cooperative visual-based SLAM approach is studied in order to solve the above problem

The proposed method tracks any object without considering its properties like shape, color, size, or pattern. It is required to keep the target visible and line of sight during the tracking. The method gives freedom of selection to a user to track any target from the image and form a formation around it. We calculat
