Coordinated Path Following of UAVs using Event-Triggered Communication over Networks with Digraph Topologies
Hyungsoo Kang, Isaac Kaminer, Venanzio Cichella +1
This article presents a novel time-coordination algorithm based on event-triggered communication to ensure multiple UAVs progress along their desired paths in coordination with one…
Autopilot System for Depth and Pitch Control in Underwater Vehicles: Navigating Near-Surface Waves and Disturbances
Vladimir Petrov, Gage MacLin, Venanzio Cichella
This paper introduces a framework for depth and pitch control of underwater vehicles in near-surface wave conditions. By effectively managing tail, sail plane angles and hover tank…
Modeling, Simulation, and Maneuvering Control of a Generic Submarine
Gage MacLin, Maxwell Hammond, Venanzio Cichella +1
This work introduces two multi-level control strategies to address the problem of guidance and control of underwater vehicles. An outer-loop path-following algorithm and an outer-l…
Coordinated Path Following of UAVs using Event-Triggered Communication over Time-Varying Networks with Digraph Topologies
Hyungsoo Kang, Isaac Kaminer, Venanzio Cichella +1
In this article, a novel time-coordination algorithm based on event-triggered communications is proposed to achieve coordinated path-following of UAVs. To be specific, in the appro…
Coordinated Path Following of UAVs over Time-Varying Digraphs Connected in an Integral Sense
Hyungsoo Kang, Isaac Kaminer, Venanzio Cichella +1
This paper presents a new connectivity condition on the information flow between UAVs to achieve coordinated path following. The information flow is directional, so that the underl…
Reduced Order Model of a Generic Submarine for Maneuvering Near the Surface
J. Ezequiel Martin, Maxwell Hammond, Nicholas Rober +3
A reduced order model of a generic submarine is presented. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) results are used to create and validate a model that includes depth dependence and the…
On-line Motion Planning Using Bernstein Polynomials for Enhanced Target Localization in Autonomous Vehicles
Camilla Tabasso, Venanzio Cichella
The use of autonomous vehicles for target localization in modern applications has emphasized their superior efficiency, improved safety, and cost advantages over human-operated met…
3D Path Following and L1 Adaptive Control for Underwater Vehicles
Nicholas Rober, Maxwell Hammond, Venanzio Cichella +2
This paper addresses the problem of guidance and control of underwater vehicles. A multi-level control strategy is used to determine (1) outer-loop path-following commands and (2)…
Time Coordination of Multiple UAVs over Switching Communication Networks with Digraph Topologies
Hyungsoo Kang, Hyung-Jin Yoon, Venanzio Cichella +2
This paper presents a time-coordination algorithm for multiple UAVs executing cooperative missions. Unlike previous algorithms, it does not rely on the assumption that the communic…
