The maximum covering location problem (MCLP) is a key problem in facility location, with many applications and variants. One such variant is the dynamic (or multi-period) MCLP, which considers the installation of facilities across multiple…
Electronic Phased-Array Radars offer new possibilities for Optimization of Radar Search Pattern by using bi-dimensional beam forming and beam steering, along both elevation and azimuth axes. The minimization of the Time-Budget required for…
The Maximal Covering Location Problem (MCLP) represents a fundamental optimization challenge in facility location theory, where the objective is to maximize demand coverage while operating under resource constraints. This paper presents a…
This paper concerns with the sensor management problem in collocated Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radars. After deriving the Cramer-Rao Lower Bound (CRLB) as a performance measure, the antenna allocation problem is formulated as a…
The problem of optimal power allocation among light emitting diode (LED) transmitters in a visible light positioning (VLP) system is considered for the purpose of improving localization performance of visible light communication (VLC)…
This paper considers three related mobile robot multi-target sensory coverage and inspection planning problems in 2-D environments. In the first problem, a mobile robot must find the shortest path to observe multiple targets with a limited…
The Open Loop Layout Problem (OLLP) seeks to position rectangular cells of varying dimensions on a plane without overlap, minimizing transportation costs computed as the flow-weighted sum of pairwise distances between cells. A key challenge…
In this paper, we consider the multiple probabilistic covering location problem (MPCLP), which attempts to open a fixed number of facilities to maximize the total covered customer demand under a joint probabilistic coverage setting. We…
In many applications, including underwater robotics, the coverage problem requires an autonomous vehicle to systematically explore a defined area while minimizing redundancy and avoiding obstacles. This paper investigates coverage path…
In the Two-Bar Charts Packing Problem (2-BCPP), it is required to pack the bar charts (BCs) consisting of two bars into the horizontal unit-height strip of minimal length. The bars may move vertically within the strip, but it is forbidden…
The Maximal Covering Location Problem (MCLP) is a classical location problem where a company maximizes the demand covered by placing a given number of facilities, and each demand node is covered if the closest facility is within a…
In this paper, we study optimal radar deployment for intrusion detection, with focus on network coverage. In contrast to the disk-based sensing model in a traditional sensor network, the detection range of a bistatic radar depends on the…
A new algorithm for 3D localization in multiplatform radar networks, comprising one transmitter and multiple receivers, is proposed. To take advantage of the monostatic sensor radiation pattern features, ad-hoc constraints are imposed in…
We perform structural and algorithmic studies of significantly generalized versions of the optimal perimeter guarding (OPG) problem. As compared with the original OPG where robots are uniform, in this paper, many mobile robots with…
The problem of constrained coverage path planning involves a robot trying to cover maximum area of an environment under some constraints that appear as obstacles in the map. Out of the several coverage path planning methods, we consider…
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…
The Moving Target Vehicle Routing Problem with Obstacles (MT-VRP-O) seeks trajectories for several agents that collectively intercept a set of moving targets. Each target has one or more time windows where it must be visited, and the agents…
Physical layer security (PLS) is a potential solution for secure and reliable transmissions in future Ultra-Reliable and Low-Latency Communications (URLLC). This work jointly optimizes redundant bits and blocklength allocation in practical…
Facility and covering location models are key elements in many decision aid tools in logistics, supply chain design, telecommunications, public infrastructure planning, and many other industrial and public sectors. In many applications, it…
Wireless surveillance in cellular networks has become increasingly important, while commercial LTE surveillance cameras are also available nowadays. Nevertheless, most scheduling algorithms in the literature are throughput, fairness, or…
