Supervisory control for multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) operated by a single operator has been studied [1]. The operator decides a plan by which he/she completes a mission such as surveillance and rescue. A supporting system for the operator is needed to select an optimal plan using a large number of data such as sensing data from the UAVs and a map from a cloud. On the other hand, in cloud computing, potentially unlimited computing and database resources can be utilized. In this paper, we apply a cyberphysical system approach to the design of a system for a CLoud-Assisted Sensing and Supervisory control (CLASS) of the multiple UAVs operated by a single operator. The cloud provides a list of plans from which the operator selects an optimal one, a user interface suitable for mission accomplishment, information such as the UAVs' data and a map to the operator, and commands to each UAV for an automatic navigation. Moreover, the cloud retrieves data used to complete the mission from other clouds.
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.
