Abstract:Increasingly inexpensive unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are helpful for searching and tracking moving objects in ground events. Previous works either have assumed that data about the targets are sufficiently available, or they solely rely on on-board electronics (e.g., camera and radar) to chase them. In a searching mission, path planning is essentially preprogrammed before taking off. Meanwhile, a large-scale wireless sensor network (WSN) is a promising means for monitoring events continuously over immense a… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
