Design Principles of Autonomous Systems : UAV, UGV, and AUV

Omtale

This book explains unmanned systems including unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), autonomous under water vehicles (AUV) and unmanned ground vehicles (UGV). It also details their basic design, components/sub-components, sensors, employed payloads, and communication systems. It discusses generic applications of these unmanned systems including specific missions for which they are employed. Other topics like swarm of drone, anti-drone system, and some algorithms used in navigation and communication of the drone are also discussed.Features:Helps readers understand nuances of autonomous systems in land, air, and sea.Explains pertinent design, sensors, and communication system.Lays the foundation for crafting, designing, and drone applications.Reviews technology, algorithms, computing, and regulations.Discusses software and navigation aspects of unmanned systems.This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in mechatronics engineering, systems and sensors, systems and control, and aerospace engineering.
