Automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) is the communications protocol currently being rolled out as part of next generation air transportation systems. As the heart of modern air traffic control, it will play an essential role…

We study the problem of sensor placement in environments in which localization is a necessity, such as ad-hoc wireless sensor networks that allow the placement of a few anchors that know their location or sensor arrays that are tracking a…

The surveillance multisensor placement is an important optimization problem that consists of positioning several sensors of different types to maximize the coverage of a determined area while minimizing the cost of the deployment. In this…

This paper addresses the challenges of optimally placing a finite number of sensors to detect Poisson-distributed targets in a bounded domain. We seek to rigorously account for uncertainty in the target arrival model throughout the problem.…

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), a.k.a. drones, are increasingly used for different tasks. With more drones in the sky, the risk of accidents rises, sparkling the need for conflict management solutions. Aircraft use a system called…

This paper regards the problem of optimally placing unreliable sensors in a one-dimensional environment. We assume that sensors can fail with a certain probability and we minimize the expected maximum distance from any point in the…

In a DDoS attack (Distributed Denial of Service), an attacker gains control of many network users through a virus. Then the controlled users send many requests to a victim, leading to its resources being depleted. DDoS attacks are hard to…

We carry out a structural and algorithmic study of a mobile sensor coverage optimization problem targeting 2D surfaces embedded in a 3D workspace. The investigated settings model multiple important applications including camera network…

We study a stealthy range-sensor placement problem where a set of range sensors are to be placed with respect to targets to effectively localize them while maintaining a degree of stealthiness from the targets. This is an open and…

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle mounted base stations (UAV-BSs) can provide wireless services in a variety of scenarios. In this letter, we propose an optimal placement algorithm for UAV-BSs that maximizes the number of covered users using the…

This paper analytically characterizes optimal sensor placements for target localization and tracking in 2D and 3D. Three types of sensors are considered: bearing-only, range-only, and received-signal-strength. The optimal placement problems…

The purpose of the automatic dependent surveillance broadcast (ADS-B) technology is to serve as a replacement for the current radar-based, air traffic control systems. Despite the considerable time and resources devoted to designing and…

This paper studies sensor placement when detection performance varies stochastically due to environmental factors over space and time and false alarms are present, but a filter is used to attenuate the effect. We introduce a unified model…

Although the ADS-B system is going to play a major role in the safe navigation of airplanes and air traffic control (ATC) management, it is also well known for its lack of security mechanisms. Previous research has proposed various methods…

Sensor placement for contaminant detection in water distribution systems (WDS) has become a topic of great interest aiming to secure a population's water supply. Several approaches can be found in the literature with differences ranging…

Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast(ADSB), is the next generation Air Traffic management system to monitor the airspace for air traffic communication and traffic information. While the ADS-B empowers aircraft to broadcast their…

The deployment of Aerial Base Stations (ABSs) mounted on board Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is emerging as a promising technology to provide connectivity in areas where terrestrial infrastructure is insufficient or absent. This may occur…

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can be users that support new applications, or be communication access points that serve terrestrial and/or aerial users. In this paper, we focus on the connectivity problem of aerial users when they are…

Integration of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) or "drones" into the civil aviation airspace is a problem of increasing interest in the aviation community, as testified by many initiatives developed worldwide. Many traditional surveillance…

Range-based localization is ubiquitous: global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) power mobile phone-based navigation, and autonomous mobile robots can use range measurements from a variety of modalities including sonar, radar, and even…
