Firstly, the multiple UAVs formation flight system based on trophallaxis network control is given. Then, the model of leader-follower formation flight with a virtual leader based on trophallaxis network control is pre- sented, and the influence of time delays on the network performance is analyzed. A particle swarm optimization (PSO)-based formation controller is proposed for solving the leader-follower formation flight system. The proposed method is applied to five UAVs for achieving a 'V' formation, and a series of experimental results show its feasibility and validity. The proposed control algorithm is also a promising control strategy for formation flight of multiple unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs), unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), missiles and satellites.展开更多

Oil weighting factor of oil-water emulsion is one of the most important parameters for emergent oil-spill microwave monitoring. A new method is proposed here to evaluate the oil weighting factor based on fractional Weierstrass scattering model. By using the proposed method, we analyze the Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle Synthetic Aperture Radar(UAVSAR) L-band fully polarimetric data acquired during 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill disaster event in the Gulf of Mexico. The result shows that our method performs well in evaluating oil weighting factor of oil-covered area.展开更多
