Cislunar Space Situational Awareness Constellation Design and Planning with Facility Location Problem
Yuri Shimane, Kento Tomita, Koki Ho
Driven by the surmounting interest for dedicated infrastructure in cislunar space, this work considers the satellite constellation design for cislunar space situational awareness (…
Bayesian Deep Learning for Segmentation for Autonomous Safe Planetary Landing
Kento Tomita, Katherine A. Skinner, Koki Ho
Hazard detection is critical for enabling autonomous landing on planetary surfaces. Current state-of-the-art methods leverage traditional computer vision approaches to automate the…
Real-Time Stochastic Terrain Mapping and Processing for Autonomous Safe Landing
Kento Tomita, Koki Ho
Onboard terrain sensing and mapping for safe planetary landings often suffer from missed hazardous features, e.g., small rocks, due to the large observational range and the limited…
Concurrent Optimization of Satellite Phasing and Tasking for Cislunar Space Situational Awareness
Malav Patel, Kento Tomita, Koki Ho
Recently, renewed interest in cislunar space spurred by private and public organizations has driven research for future infrastructure in the region. As Earth-Moon traffic increase…
