The rational flight landing sequence has very important influence on the service of airlines, airports and air traffic controller. The discrete optimization problem can be seen as one machine scheduling problem with distinct starting and finishing time and the objective: the minimization of tardy flight problem. Because of this NP-hard complexity, ant colony optimization (ACO) is utilized to so...

To simultaneously achieve space formation flight and target tracking of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) solve the rotation buffeting problem UAV, a robust control algorithm is proposed. The artificial potential function consisting term established, its convergence proved. sliding mode method with saturation sufficient condition for to occur analysed. Finally, numerical simulation condu...

Formation flying of clusters of micro-, nanoand pico-satellites has been recognized to be more affordable,robust and versatile than building a large monolithic satellite in implementing next generation space missions requiringlarge apertures or large sample collection areas and sophisticated earth imaging/monitoring. We propose a propellantfree, thus contamination free, method that ...

Cognitive Formation Flight in Multi-Unmanned Aerial Vehicle-Based Personal Remote Sensing Systems

singular perturbation problems have been studied by many mathematicians. since the approximate solutions of these problems are as the sum of internal solution (boundary layer area) and external ones, the formation or non-formation of boundary layers should be specified. this paper, investigates this issue for a singular perturbation problem including a first order differential equation with gen...
