This work proposes a systematic framework for modelling and controller design of a Commercial-Off-The Shelf (COTS) unmanned rotorcraft using control theory and principles, for brick wall construction. With point to point navigation as the…

Beyond Visual Line of Sight operation enables drones to surpass the limits imposed by the reach and constraints of their operator's eyes. It extends their range and, as such, productivity, and profitability. Drones operating BVLOS include a…

Drones are a promising technology for autonomous data collection and indoor sensing. In situations when human-controlled UAVs may not be practical or dependable, such as in uncharted or dangerous locations, the usage of autonomous UAVs…

Software components for on-board architectures in the space domain are increasingly reliant on Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS), Open Source (OSS) or other third party software products. However, these software components often have not been…

This paper explores the critical issue of enhancing cybersecurity measures for low-cost, Wi-Fi-based Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) against Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. In the current work, we have explored three variants…

The deployment of Internet of Things (IoT) systems in Defense and National Security faces some limitations that can be addressed with Edge Computing approaches. The Edge Computing and IoT paradigms combined bring potential benefits, since…

Commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) components are often preferred over custom Integrated Circuits (ICs) to achieve reduced system development time and cost, easy adoption of new technologies, and replaceability. Unfortunately, the integration…

Consumer unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have evolved into capable computing platforms, yet their embedded firmware remains largely inaccessible to the security community. Entry-level models, in particular those marketed to first-time and…

Several types of networks that comprise unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV or drone) are being utilized in important applications such as emergency response, environment and infrastructure monitoring, defense and security, and commerce. In such…

Due to the limited computing resources of swarm of drones, it is difficult to handle computation-intensive tasks locally, hence the cloud based computation offloading is widely adopted. However, for the business which requires low latency…

The safety of autonomous systems in dynamic and hazardous environments poses significant challenges. This paper presents a testing approach named SCALOFT for systematically assessing the safety of an autonomous aerial drone in a mine.…

This paper presents a new approach for formulating the delivery problem by drones with general energy consumption models where the drones visit a set of places to deliver parcels to customers. Drones can perform multiple trips that start…

Drones are becoming versatile in a myriad of applications. This has led to the use of drones for spying and intruding into the restricted or private air spaces. Such foul use of drone technology is dangerous for the safety and security of…

Timing guarantees are crucial to cyber-physical applications that must bound the end-to-end delay between sensing, processing and actuation. For example, in a flight controller for a multirotor drone, the data from a gyro or inertial sensor…

Data-driven landscape across finance, government, and healthcare, the continuous generation of information demands robust solutions for secure storage, efficient dissemination, and fine-grained access control. Blockchain technology emerges…

A wireless network of full-duplex nodes/users, using anti-eavesdropping channel estimation (ANECE) based on collaborative pilots, can yield a positive secure degree-of-freedom (SDoF) regardless of the number of antennas an eavesdropper may…

L-band Digital Aeronautical Communication System (LDACS) aims to exploit vacant spectrum in L-band via spectrum sharing, and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is the currently accepted LDACS waveform. Recently, various works…

Enabling high data-rate uplink cellular connectivity for drones is a challenging problem, since a flying drone has a higher likelihood of having line-of-sight propagation to base stations that terrestrial UEs normally do not have…

We explore an end-to-end (including access and backhaul links) UAV-assisted wireless communication system, considering both uplink and downlink traffics, with the goal of supporting demand of the Ground Users (GUs) using the minimum number…

Spoofing attacks are among the most destructive cyber threats to terrestrial systems, and they become even more dangerous in space, where satellites cannot be easily serviced, and operators depend on accurate telemetry to ensure mission…
