Collaborative Threat-Aware Autonomy (CTAA)
Rajnikant Sharma, Abhinav Sinha, Isaac Weintraub
Navigating teams of unmanned vehicles through environments containing dynamic, adversarial Weapon Engagement Zones~(WEZs) poses a fundamental challenge to mission success: a single…
Multi-AAV Cooperative Path Planning using Nonlinear Model Predictive Control with Localization Constraints
Amith Manoharan, Rajnikanth Sharma, P. B. Sujit
In this paper, we solve a joint cooperative localization and path planning problem for a group of Autonomous Aerial Vehicles (AAVs) in GPS-denied areas using nonlinear model predic…
Deployable, Data-Driven Unmanned Vehicle Navigation System in GPS-Denied, Feature-Deficient Environments
Sohum Misra, Kaarthik Sundar, Rajnikant Sharma +1
This paper presents a novel data-driven navigation system to navigate an Unmanned Vehicle (UV) in GPS-denied, feature-deficient environments such as tunnels, or mines. The method u…
Modeling and Simulation of COVID-19 Pandemic for Cincinnati Tri-State Area
Michael Rechtin, Vince Feldman, Sam Klare +2
In this paper, we use SIR model to simulate the COVID-19 pandemic for Cincinnati Tri-State Area. We have built a representative population of Cincinnati that includes movements for…
Routing Multiple Unmanned Vehicles in GPS-Denied Environments
Bingyu Wang, Sohum Misra, Sivakumar Rathinam +2
This article aims to develop novel path planning algorithms required to deploy multiple unmanned vehicles in Global Positioning System (GPS) denied environments. Unmanned vehicles…
Landmark Placement for Localization in a GPS-denied Environment
Kaarthik Sundar, Shriram Srinivasan, Sohum Misra +2
Path planning algorithms for unmanned aerial or ground vehicles, in many surveillance applications, rely on Global Positioning System (GPS) information for localization. However, d…
Multi-vehicle Path Following using Modified Trajectory Shaping Guidance
Ishmaal Erekson, Rajnikant Sharma, Ashwini Ratnoo +1
In this paper, we formulate a virtual target-based path following guidance law aimed towards multi-vehicle path following problem. The guidance law is well suited to precisely foll…
Low Cost, Open-Source Testbed to Enable Full-Sized Automated Vehicle Research
Austin Costley, Chase Kunz, Ryan Gerdes +1
An open-source vehicle testbed to enable the exploration of automation technologies for road vehicles is presented. The platform hardware and software, based on the Robot Operating…
Routing Unmanned Vehicles in GPS-Denied Environments
Kaarthik Sundar, Sohum Misra, Sivakumar Rathinam +1
Most of the routing algorithms for unmanned vehicles, that arise in data gathering and monitoring applications in the literature, rely on the Global Positioning System (GPS) inform…
