This book explains unmanned systems including Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) and Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs). It also details system and subsystem compositions and their basic design. The components/subcomponents, employed payloads and sensors, and communication systems used to compose the autonomous system are discussed. It examines generic applications of these unmanned systems including specific missions for which they are employed. Other topics like swarm of drone, anti-drone system, and some algorithms used in navigation and communication of the drone are also discussed.
Some key features:
- Helps readers understand nuances of autonomous systems on land, in air, and in sea.
- Explains pertinent design principles, senlĂ/
