Abstract:In this article, a special class of trajectory optimization problems is formalized and solved. It involves the optimization of different unmanned vehicle (UMV) trajectories that are coupled through reciprocal constraints. It is shown in the article that searching for a solution to the problem at hand may stipulate not just planning a longer than the shortest possible path for each UMV, but also choosing slower travel speeds in order to co-ordinate between the UMVs. Although it seems that solving the problem po… 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.
