“…While [ 152 ] describes the technological or regulatory challenges for UAVs, in [ 204 , 222 ], attention is drawn to the legal-political, socio-legal approach and the implementation of regulations, highlighting the measures that should be taken before making a given technology available to the public. Some of the important areas are planning paths, avoiding obstacles, and navigation [ 143 , 154 , 156 , 188 , 189 , 190 , 191 , 192 , 193 , 194 , 195 , 196 , 197 , 198 , 199 , 200 , 201 , 202 ]. The aspects mentioned above have a significant impact on the operational safety of the drone.…”

“…The aspects mentioned above have a significant impact on the operational safety of the drone. The increase in safety may also result from changes in the design [ 205 , 206 ], appropriate risk analysis tailored to the purpose of the drone [ 163 , 188 , 189 , 202 , 207 , 208 ], and the detection of unexpected behaviours and abnormal situations during the operation of the drone [ 209 , 210 , 211 , 212 , 213 ]. Just as important as the drone’s flight is its landing.…”

This article aims to present the results of a bibliometric analysis of relevant literature and discuss the main research streams related to the topic of risks in drone applications. The methodology of the conducted research consisted of five procedural steps, including the planning of the research, conducting a systematic review of the literature, proposing a classification framework corresponding to contemporary research trends related to the risk of drone applications, and compiling the characteristics of the publications assigned to each of the highlighted thematic groups. This systematic literature review used the PRISMA method. A total of 257 documents comprising articles and conference proceedings were analysed. On this basis, eight thematic categories related to the use of drones and the risks associated with their operation were distinguished. Due to the high content within two of these categories, a further division into subcategories was proposed to illustrate the research topics better. The conducted investigation made it possible to identify the current research trends related to the risk of drone use and pointed out the existing research gaps, both in the area of risk assessment methodology and in its application areas. The results obtained from the analysis can provide interesting material for both industry and academia.

“…In contrast, our work adapts the maximum vehicle speed according to environment complexity. Quan et al [10] propose an adaptive optimization-based motion planning approach for the multirotor navigation task, which is most similar to our approach. The heuristic used for speed modulation relies on the angle between the velocity direction and the gradient of the local signed distance field.…”

“…However, while the motion planner allows adaptation in speed, the resolution of the environment representation is fixed. Selecting the resolution of an a priori unknown environment is difficult, which makes the approach of Quan et al [10] unsuitable for our application. An alternative strategy is to operate with a range of voxel sizes for the local environment representation and modulate speeds according to the change in the map.…”

Hierarchical Collision Avoidance for Adaptive-Speed Multirotor Teleoperation

This paper improves safe motion primitives-based teleoperation of a multirotor by developing a hierarchical collision avoidance method that modulates maximum speed based on environment complexity and perceptual constraints. Safe speed modulation is challenging in environments that exhibit varying clutter. Existing methods fix maximum speed and map resolution, which prevents vehicles from accessing tight spaces and places the cognitive load for changing speed on the operator. We address these gaps by proposing a high-rate (10 Hz) teleoperation approach that modulates the maximum vehicle speed through hierarchical collision checking. The hierarchical collision checker simultaneously adapts the local map's voxel size and maximum vehicle speed to ensure motion planning safety. The proposed methodology is evaluated in simulation and real-world experiments and compared to a nonadaptive motion primitives-based teleoperation approach. The results demonstrate the advantages of the proposed teleoperation approach both in time taken and the ability to complete the task without requiring the user to specify a maximum vehicle speed.

Decapitation strike is an important part of modern war, which could achieve significant effect at a small cost. With the rapid improvement of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarm's ability to carry out reconnaissance and strike missions, this combat mission can be performed by UAV swarm instead of ground special forces or fighters. Based on the analysis of mission profiling, this article establishes the mission model and threat area model of decapitation strike. Then, combining Bézier curve with receding planning framework, an Optimized model for UAV swarm path planning under the condition of full coverage antiaircraft firepower is proposed. The simulation results show that the model and improved algorithm in this paper can effectively solve the path planning problem of UAV swarm in the face of full coverage threat. The research can make up for the defects of the traditional "Cross Gaps" path planning algorithm in solving the problem of crossing threat areas, and provide effective guidance for UAV swarm to perform the decapitation missions.
