The application of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is surging across several industries, paralleled by growing demand for these UAVs. However, the noise emitted by UAVs remains a significant impediment to their widespread use even though in…
The vehicle routing problem with drones (VRP-D) is to determine the optimal routes of trucks and drones such that the total operational cost is minimized in a scenario where the trucks work in tandem with the drones to deliver parcels to…
In this paper we study the dynamic version of the covering problem motivated by the coverage of drones' swarm: Let $S$ be a set of $n$ non-negative weighted points in the plane representing users. Also, consider a set $P$ of $m$ disks that…
This work aims to investigate the use of deep neural network to detect commercial hobby drones in real-life environments by analyzing their sound data. The purpose of work is to contribute to a system for detecting drones used for malicious…
Micro aerial vehicles are becoming increasingly important in search and rescue operations due to their agility, speed, and ability to access confined spaces or hazardous areas. However, designing lightweight aerial systems presents…
Combining an energy-efficient drone with a high-capacity truck for last-mile package delivery can benefit operators and customers by reducing delivery times and environmental impact. However, directly integrating drone flight dynamics into…
Multirotor unmanned aerial vehicle is a prevailing type of aerial robots with wide real-world applications. The energy efficiency of the robot is a critical aspect of its performance, determining the range and duration of the missions that…
The current paper studies a protective mission to defend a domain called the safe zone from a rogue drone invasion. We consider a one attacker and one defender drone scenario where only a noisy observation of the attacker at every time step…
Enabling cellular connectivity for drones introduces a wide set of challenges and opportunities. Communication of cellular-connected drones is influenced by 3-dimensional mobility and line-of-sight channel characteristics which results in…
The autonomous operation of flexible-wing aircraft is technically challenging and has never been presented within literature. The lack of an exact modeling framework is due to the complex nonlinear aerodynamic relationships governed by the…
Time-critical tasks such as drone racing typically cover large operation areas. However, it is difficult and computationally intensive for current time-optimal motion planners to accommodate long flight distances since a large yet unknown…
Drones have a fairly short range due to their limited battery life. We propose an adaptive exploration techniques to extend the range of drones by taking advantage of physical structures such as tall buildings and trees in urban…
Undergraduate lab design balances several factors: 1) simple experiments connected with learning objectives 2) experiments sufficiently accurate for comparisons between theory and measurements without gaps when students ascribe…
Thanks to the recent advancements in drone technology, it has become viable and cost-effective to quickly deploy small cells in areas of urgent needs by using a drone as a cellular base station. In this paper, we explore the benefit of…
The rapid deployment of drones poses significant challenges for airspace management, security, and surveillance. Current detection and classification technologies, including cameras, LiDAR, and conventional radar systems, often struggle to…
Developing videos for trust testing is very time-consuming, expensive and potentially dangerous. For trust tests, it requires a person to be flying the drone while another might be filming. The drones can be very expensive and if something…
We propose a method for autonomous precision drone landing with fiducial markers and a gimbal-mounted, multi-payload camera with wide-angle, zoom, and IR sensors. The method has minimal data requirements; it depends primarily on the…
This paper investigates the pursuit-evasion problem of a defensive gun turret and one or more attacking drones. The turret must ``visit" each attacking drone once, as quickly as possible, to defeat the threat. This constitutes a Shortest…
Once known to be used exclusively in military domain, unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) have stepped up to become a part of new logistic method in commercial sector called "last-mile delivery". In this novel approach, small unmanned aerial…
Over the past few years, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), also known as drones, have been adopted as part of a new logistic method in the commercial sector called "last-mile delivery". In this novel approach, they are deployed alongside…
