Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have revolutionized inspection tasks by offering a safer, more efficient, and flexible alternative to traditional methods. However, battery limitations often constrain their effectiveness, necessitating the…
Cooperative utilization of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in public and military surveillance applications has attracted significant attention in recent years. Most UAVs are equipped with sensors that have bounded coverage and wireless…
In this paper we propose an algorithm for stabilizing circular formations of fixed-wing UAVs with constant speeds. The algorithm is based on the idea of tracking circles with different radii in order to control the inter-vehicle phases with…
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are widely used due to their low cost and versatility, but they also pose security and privacy threats. Therefore, reliable detection for low-altitude UAVs is an important issue. The strong ground clutter…
We consider a single Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) routing problem where there are multiple depots and the vehicle is allowed to refuel at any depot. The objective of the problem is to find a path for the UAV such that each target is…
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) offer dynamic trajectory control, enabling them to avoid obstacles and establish line-of-sight (LoS) wireless channels with ground nodes (GNs), unlike traditional ground-fixed base stations. This study…
Modern coverage path planning (CPP) for holonomic UAVs in emergency response must contend with diverse environments where regions of interest (ROIs) often take the form of highly irregular polygons, characterized by asymmetric shapes, dense…
The problem of adversary target detection and the subsequent task completion using a heterogeneous network of resource-constrained UAVs is considered. No prior knowledge about locations and required resources to identify these targets is…
Many emerging technologies for the next generation wireless network prefer line-of-sight (LOS) propagation conditions to fully release their performance advantages. This paper studies 3D unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) placement to establish…
