UAVs are about to be part of our everyday lives. The range of applications is very broad, ranging from swarms of UAVs that can be used for 3D modeling and surveillance of large areas, to search and rescues and fire fighter missions. An important cornerstone for the development of civil UAVs is communication technology. To ensure lightweight and cheap UAV technology, it is necessary to use existing commodity communication technology and chip-sets for UAV communications. Yet, the impact of the novel aerial and high altitude propagation context on those technologies needs to be understood. In this paper, we analyze the performance of IEEE 802.11 communication, both experimentally and by means of simulation. It is shown that the aerial context results in very different communication performance for an 802.11 network compared to the typical terrestrial context. Decreased shadowing gives a larger number of networks that can be seen, resulting in higher interference and packet loss due to collisions.","PeriodicalId":233042,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the First Workshop on Micro Aerial Vehicle Networks, Systems, and Applications for Civilian Use","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126505735","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The case of drones autonomously flying according to a pre-defined route is clearly the most interesting one for the deployment of such applications. Yet, autonomic flight requires that a drone is able to maintain stability – in terms of a target attitude – in spite of external disturbances (e.g. gusts of wind), with no human intervention. This is traditionally done with a PID (proportional integral derivative) controller, which takes as input the deviations from the target, and supplies in output the indication of how to act on the drone engines so as to restore the proper attitude. Two orders of problems must be dealt with when deploying a PID controller. First, the parameters weighing the input components must be properly tuned in order to guarantee attitude restoring, and to avoid oscillations of the system. Second, the PID output must be translated into commands to the drone engines so as to achieve the desired behavior. The former aspect can be solved either by hand, or with a number of automatic methods proposed in the literature (e.g. [1, 2]). Those methods involve complex mathematical models and are considerably time-consuming. As far as the latter aspect is concerned, there are hardware constraints that impede to abruptly change speed or spin of rotors and propellers, which otherwise may be damaged. In this paper, we introduce a mathematical model simplified yet effective in yielding appropriate parameters to implement an accurate controller, without the need of a complex preliminary calibration of the mechanical system. We describe our policies to apply controller indications to the drone hardware. We validate both model and policies through experiments.","PeriodicalId":233042,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the First Workshop on Micro Aerial Vehicle Networks, Systems, and Applications for Civilian Use","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130566450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We study scenarios where a data ferry moves between a fixed set of stationary nodes not connected otherwise. Thus, ferrying is assumed to be the only means of communication in the network. In order to minimize the average message delivery time, the ferry dynamically decides on the next node to visit. For this, we assume local knowledge only, i.e. the decision made by the ferry is solely based on locally derived information. Our studies are based on an abstract state transition model for the system. Based on this model we analyze the performance of different algorithms. This includes a static planning algorithm selecting the shortest Euler tour (TSP) and our dynamic decision algorithm (SOFCOM) based on local knowledge. In order to study the performance of both algorithms, we compare these with results derived by an idealized nondeterministic algorithm (oracle) assuming global as well as future knowledge on the generated messages. Our studies are based on symmetric as well as asymmetric traffic with exponential message arrivals. We show that our SOFCOM algorithm typically outperforms the TSP algorithm and that it achieves results close to the oracle solution. Especially important, our studies show that the benefits of global knowledge of the system state are rather small, and that local knowledge is sufficient to achieve very good results.","PeriodicalId":233042,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the First Workshop on Micro Aerial Vehicle Networks, Systems, and Applications for Civilian Use","volume":"116 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116468272","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
