  2. 6. Multi-Agent Mission Planning and Execution for Small Autonomous Underwater Vehicles

    Author : Özer Özkahraman; Petter Ögren; João Tasso de Figueiredo Borges de Sousa; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Underwater vehicles; collaborative; robotics; auv; navigation; coverage; search; slam; graph-slam; communication; control barrier functions; control; swarms; caging; capture; Datalogi; Computer Science;

    Abstract : Our planet is mostly covered in water, most of it still unexplored.In order to understand our environment better, oceanographers have been mapping and monitoring these waters using ship-mounted sensors and wired vehicles with limited range compared to the vastness of the oceans.

  4. 7. Dude, Where's My Car? Cellular Navigation for Autonomous Driving

    Author : Russ Whiton; Kommunikationsteknologi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Position and direction estimation is useful for numerous engineering applications for commercial, scientific, and military purposes. Technology that fuses observations of signals broadcast by Global Navigational Satellite Systems (GNSS) with inertial measurements is standard for electronic devices, but this requires at least a periodically unobstructed view of the sky to perform reliably.

  5. 8. Time and Frequency Transfer using Passive Techniques in Active Fiber Optic Networks

    Author : Sven-Christian Ebenhag; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fiber link; optical fiber.; Global positioning system GPS ; fiber network; time transfer; two-way; synchronous optical networking SONET synchronous digital hierarchy SDH ; GPS carrier phase;

    Abstract : For the modern society, high precision time and frequency transfer have become crucial since a large number of systems, such as telecommunication systems, require precise and stable synchronization. Electric power companies use synchronized systems for taking stability measurements and searching for errors in their networks. READ MORE

  6. 9. Frequency Transfer Techniques and Applications in Fiber Optic Communication Systems

    Author : Sven-Christian Ebenhag; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; synchronous digital hierarchy SDH ; UTC; synchronization; Time transfer; optical fiber; optical fiber network; GPS carrier phase; global positioning system GPS ; synchronous optical networking SONET ;

    Abstract : Modern society is dependent on communications and the developments of these increases constantly through a seemingly endless demand for communication services and thereby synchronization and time. This is confirmed by a vast range of research on communications, irrespective of technology and protocol. READ MORE

  7. 10. Measuring and modelling variations in the distribution of atmospheric water vapour using GPS

    Author : Tobias Nilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Global Positioning System GPS ; Microwave Radiometry; Water Vapour; Climate; Atmospheric Turbulence;

    Abstract : Turbulence introduce variations in the refractive index of air, which in turn result in fluctuations in the phase and amplitude of radio signals propagating through the atmosphere. Most important are the variations due to fluctuations in the water vapour field. READ MORE
