An invaluable addition to the literature on UAV guidance and
cooperative control, Cooperative Path Planning of Unmanned
Aerial Vehicles is a dedicated, practical guide to
computational path planning for UAVs. One of the key issues facing
future development of UAVs is path planning: it is vital that swarm
UAVs/ MAVs can cooperate together in a coordinated manner, obeying
a pre-planned course but able to react to their environment by
communicating and cooperating. An optimized path is necessary in
order to ensure a UAV completes its mission efficiently, safely,
and successfully.
Focussing on the path planning of multiple UAVs for simultaneous
arrival on target, Cooperative Path Planning of Unmanned Aerial
Vehicles also offers coverage of path planners that are
applicable to land, sea, or space-borne vehicles.
Cooperative Path Planning of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles is
authored by leading researchers from Cranfield University and
provides an authoritative resource for researchers, academics and
engineers working in the area of cooperative systems, cooperative
control and optimization particularly in the aerospace
industry.
