  1. 1. Book retrieval system : Developing a service for efficient library book retrievalusing particle swarm optimization

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för systemteknik

    Author : Adam Woods; [2024]
    Keywords : Particle swarm optimization; indoor positioning system; machine learning; Wi-Fi; RSSI; RTT; artificial neural network; ADAM optimizer; Keras; TensorFlow;

    Abstract : Traditional methods for locating books and resources in libraries often entail browsing catalogsor manual searching that are time-consuming and inefficient. This thesis investigates thepotential of automated digital services to streamline this process, by utilizing Wi-Fi signal datafor precise indoor localization. READ MORE

  2. 2. Ensuring safe docking maneuvers on floating platform using Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC)

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

    Author : Federico Gatti; [2024]
    Keywords : Robotics; Space Engineering; Docking Maneuvers; Floating Platforms; Nonlinear MPC; MPC; Barrier function; PWM;

    Abstract : Docking maneuvers are a relevant part of the modern space mission, requiring precision and safety to ensure the success of the overall mission. This thesis proposes using a non-linear Model Predictive Control (MPC) as a controller with various constraints to ensure safe docking maneuvers for a satellite. READ MORE

  3. 3. Generation and detection of entangled single-photon pairs

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/FREIA

    Author : Gabriella Tesfamichael Habtezion; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Quantum information technology is an emerging field with important applications such as quantum cryptography and teleportation, quantum imaging and lithography. These applications make use of single photons and pairs of entangled photons. In this work, we experimentally generate and attempt to detect the entangled photons. READ MORE

  4. 4. Robust Aircraft Positioning using Signals of Opportunity with Direction of Arrival

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Reglerteknik

    Author : Erik Axelsson; Sebastian Fagerstedt; [2023]
    Keywords : Simultaneous localisation and mapping; direction of arrival; signals of opportunity; extended Kalman filter; positioning;

    Abstract : This thesis considers the problem of using signals of opportunity (SOO) with known direction of arrival (DOA) for aircraft positioning. SOO is a collective name for a wide range of signals not intended for navigation but which can be intercepted by the radar warning system on an aircraft. READ MORE

  5. 5. A case study of disjunctive programming: Determining optimal motion trajectories for a vehicle by mixed-integer optimization

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Oskar Jagstedt; Elias Vitell; [2023]
    Keywords : Optimization; disjunctive programming; integer programming; Gurobi; big-M; nonlinear programming;

    Abstract : This report considers an application of mixed-integer disjunctive programming (MIDP)where a theoretical robot can jump from one point to another and where the number ofjumps is to be minimized. The robot is only able to jump to the north, south, east andwest. READ MORE
