Drone Swarm Strategy for the Detection and Tracking of Occluded Targets in Complex Environments

R. J. A. A. Nathan, I. Kurmi, et al.

This innovative research conducted by Rakesh John Amala Arokia Nathan, Indrajit Kurmi, and Oliver Bimber presents an adaptive real-time particle swarm optimization strategy for drone swarms. The study reveals a significant improvement in target detection and tracking within densely forested areas, achieving up to 72% visibility in just 14 seconds, far surpassing traditional methods.

Abstract
This paper proposes an adaptive real-time particle swarm optimization (PSO) strategy for autonomous drone swarms to detect and track occluded targets in densely forested areas using synthetic aperture (SA) sensing. Simulation results demonstrate that the approach achieved a maximum target visibility of 72% within 14 seconds, significantly outperforming blind sampling strategies.
