Challenges in Sensing, Communication, Coordination

Group 1

What are the main challenges?

• moving decisions on board
• implicit communication/ without medium
• local communication
• how to control / monitor the distributed process "there is a human in the loop"

Group 3

What are the main challenges?

• limited payload
• processing power
• (self-)localization
• coordination, synchronization of sensing
• communication (range, loss)
• collision avoidance
  • should work in worst case scenario (multiple UAVs, obstacles, communication outage)

What are the best suitable sensors, communication modules for small-scale UAVs? What is available?

       radio spectrum allocation
       vehicle, payload
       ground and airborne communication systems
