Potential field method for persistent surveillance of multiple unmanned aerial vehicle sensors

Abstract: Persistent surveillance is one of the major tasks envisioned for unmanned aerial vehicles in that some regions of interest need to be continuously surveyed. This distinction from the one-time coverage/exploration does not allow a straightforward application of the most exploration techniques to address the persistent surveillance problem. This article introduces and demonstrates a method of alterable artificial potential field to control a group of unmanned aerial vehicles to stay over the region of interest. … Show more

“…The global path optimization mainly includes the virtual potential field method, graph search algorithm, and group optimization algorithm. Huang et al [29] proposed a variable APF method to achieve path planning, collision avoidance, and formation of unmanned aerial vehicles in the area of concern, taking into account the coupling problem between unmanned aerial vehicle dynamics and path planning strategies. Wang et al [30] used the APF method to design a method for autonomous underwater vehicles to avoid collisions with the seabed and obstacles, but there is still a local minimum problem, and dynamic obstacle avoidance is not considered.…”

“…Оскільки штучні потенційні поля моделюють природу гравітаційного поля для тяжіння або відштовхування об'єктів, взаємодія з потенційним полем уможливлює моделювання взаємодії БПЛА в рої. Штучне силове поле [14], що створюється під впливом всіх об'єктів (БПЛА, цілі, перешкоди), є комбінацією окремих штучних силових полів:…”

“…Different kinds of path seeds can be generated according to the environment map to cover the area. Huang et al [93] utilized the APF method to cover the area by the formation control of the multi-robot system. The simulation results proved that the approach achieves better area coverage and real-time planning.…”
