Sensor path planning and scheduling for aircraft emergency landing field monitoring

D Nospes, P Stütz - 2024 IEEE Aerospace Conference, 2024 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This paper presents a sensor path planning and scheduling approach for the monitoring of a
series of aircraft emergency landing sites with a single on-board sensor. Since the detection …

Event-driven receding horizon control for distributed estimation in network systems

S Welikala, CG Cassandras - 2021 American Control …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This paper considers the multi-agent persistent monitoring problem defined on a network
(graph) of nodes (targets) with independent uncertain states. The agent team's goal is to …

Minimax Persistent Monitoring of a network system

SC Pinto, S Welikala, SB Andersson, JM Hendrickx… - Automatica, 2023 - Elsevier
We investigate the problem of optimally observing a finite set of targets using a mobile agent
over an infinite time horizon. The agent is tasked to move in a network-constrained structure …

Distributed estimation in network systems using event-driven receding horizon control

S Welikala, CG Cassandras - IEEE Transactions on Automatic …, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We consider the problem of estimating the states of a distributed network of nodes (targets)
through a team of cooperating agents (sensors) persistently visiting the nodes so that an …

Persistent monitoring of targets with uncertain states

SC Pinto - 2021 - search.proquest.com
In a wide range of domains, such as pipeline inspection, surveillance in smart cities and
tracking of multiple microparticles by an optical microscope, a common goal is to use mobile …
