1. 1. LEO Satellite Connectivity for flying vehicles

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Jinxuan Chen; [2023]
   Keywords : LEO satellite network; satellite connectivity strategy; Nash-SAC; flying vehicles; LEO:s satellitnät; Strategi för satellitanslutning; Nash-SAC; flygande fordon;

   Abstract : Compared with the terrestrial network (TN), which can only support limited covered areas, satellite communication (SC) can provide global coverage and high survivability in case of an emergency like an earthquake. Especially low-earth orbit (LEO) satellites, as a promising technology, which is integral to achieving the goal of global seamless coverage and reliable communication, catering to 6G’s communication requirements.

3. 2. GPU-Based Path Optimization Algorithm in High-Resolution Cost Map with Kinodynamic Constraints : Using Non-Reversible Parallel Tempering

   University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

   Author : Daniel Greenberg; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This thesis introduces a GPU-accelerated algorithm for path planning under kinodynamic constraints, focusing on navigation of flying vehicles within a high-resolution cost map. The algorithm operates by creating dynamically feasible initial paths, and a non-reversible parallel tempering Markov chain Monte Carlo scheme to optimize the paths while adhering to the nonholonomic kinodynamical constraints.

5. 4. Rapidly-Exploring Random Trees for real-time combined Exploration andPath Planning

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

   Author : Kalle Löfgren; [2023]
   Keywords : Robotics; RRT; ERRT; Exploration; Autonomous exploration; path planning; goal generation;

   Abstract : The use of micro aerial vehicles (MAV) for civilian use such as exploration and inspection of varying structures, equipment and areas have garnered some interest as of late. MAVs have the mobility and agility to traverse three dimensional space quickly and access hard to reach areas where other alternatives would struggle, but a flying platform such as a MAV comes with it’s own set of distinct problems.
