A field-based method for evaluating thermal properties of static and mobile camouflage
(2018)
Reliable and realistic methods for assessment of thermal infrared signature properties for military purposes are important. With a basis in ongoing developments of imaging technologies, especially towards mass markets, ...
Tactical Router Interoperability: Concepts and Experiments
(2018)
Interoperability on the lower tactical levels, e.g. in a multinational battalion or team, poses challenges because of the high degree of mobility and limited data capacity at the tactical edge. Enabling such multi-national ...
Measurement of point spread function for characterization of coregistration and resolution: Comparison of two commercial hyperspectral cameras
(2018)
For spectral cameras, the spatial resolution and coregistration of bands are important performance characteristics. The paper discusses how these can be quantified in a way that is relevant for the spectroscopic processing ...
Field-Testing of High-Level Decentralized Controllers for a Multi-Function Drone Swarm
(2018)
This paper describes the results of initial field testing of a high-level decentralized controller for a swarm of multi-rotor drones. This controller allows the intuitive implementation of a wide variety of swarm behaviors. ...
A New Distributed Localization Algorithm Using Social Learning Based Particle Swarm Optimization for Internet of Things
(2018)
Emerging applications in the Internet of Things (IoT) will depend on the accurate location of thousands of deployed sensors. However, accurate localization of deployed sensors nodes is a classical optimization problem which ...
Hierarchical path planning for walking (almost) anywhere
(2018)
Computerized path planning, not constrained to transportation networks, may be useful in a range of settings, from search and rescue to archaeology. This paper develops a method for general path planning intended to work ...
Image-aided inertial navigation for an Octocopter
(2018)
A typical unmanned aerial system combines an Inertial Navigation System (INS) and a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) for navigation. When the GNSS signal is unavailable, the INS errors grow over time and eventually ...
Guidelines for conducting epidemiological studies of blast injury
(2018)
Blast injuries are often caused by more than one mechanism, do not occur in isolation, and typically elicit a secondary multi-system response. Research efforts often do not separate blast injuries caused by blast waves ...
Using Publish/Subscribe for Short-lived IoT Data
(2018-09-12)
Although the use of the Internet of Things (IoT) in a smart city context primarily stems from civilian applications
like management and monitoring, there are also other uses. For instance, military forces may utilize ...
Fully adaptive radar for track update-interval control
(2018)
A fully adaptive radar framework has been proposed in recent publications, and this paper will implement the framework in an adaptive update rate application for a tracking radar. A cost function is developed to balance ...
