چکیده

Currently multicopters are facing a continuous growth in terms of recreational uses, and multiple companies focused on these aircrafts to facilitate certain tasks that were nearly inaccessible humans, or otherwise involved great cost. In this context, the drone swarm concept allows us broaden incorporate new, more refined applications which various aircraft coordinate with each other carry out large-scale tasks. When number UAVs becomes too high, guaranteeing take-off procedure is efficient yet secure quite complex. Hence, paper we propose validate different algorithms optimize time drones belonging swarm, objective there no collisions between them. particular, for both trajectory analysis batch generation take-off. Based large experiments using ArduSim simulator prove proposed provide robust solution within reasonable frame when testing aerial formations. addition, will assess how UAV position assignment strategies impact our algorithm performance batches required.

UAV autonomous take - off and landing on a surface vessel

Motivations and general objectives: The possibility of employment of teams of UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) within patrolling missions to be performed on the sea surface is currently receiving an increasing attention, by part of the scientific community, as they can be employed for the security and protection of marine areas, as well as humanitarian search and rescue reasons. The structure of...

Efficient cooperative search of smart targets using UAV Swarms

This work examines the Cooperative Hunters problem, where a swarm of unmanned air vehicles (UAVs) is used for searching after one or more “evading targets”, which are moving in a predefined area while trying to avoid a detection by the swarm. By arranging themselves into efficient geometric flight configurations, the UAVs optimize their integrated sensing capabilities, enabling the search of a ...

Development of Micro UAV Swarms

Some complex application scenarios for micro UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) call for the formation of swarms of multiple drones. In this paper a platform for the creation of such swarms is presented. It consists of modified commercial quadrocopters and a self-made ground control station software architecture. Autonomy of individual drones is generated through a micro controller equipped video ...

Towards Autonomous Micro UAV Swarms

Micro Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) such as quadrocopters have gained great popularity over the last years, both as a research platform and in various application fields. However, some complex application scenarios call for the formation of swarms consisting of multiple drones. In this paper a platform for the creation of such swarms is presented. It is based on commercially available quadroc...

Safe and Efficient Off-Policy Reinforcement Learning

In this work, we take a fresh look at some old and new algorithms for off-policy, return-based reinforcement learning. Expressing these in a common form, we derive a novel algorithm, Retrace(λ), with three desired properties: (1) it has low variance; (2) it safely uses samples collected from any behaviour policy, whatever its degree of “off-policyness”; and (3) it is efficient as it makes the b...
