This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program, with CFDA number 47.070, provides $453,372 to Syracuse University to develop autonomous operations of multi-UAV uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) for monitoring and tracking natural disaster events like wildfires and flooding. The key research goals are to design and implement robust motion estimation and control schemes that enable a team of UAVs to collaboratively follow desired trajectories for loitering, monitoring, and tracking in the presence of environmental disturbances. The project will leverage onboard sensors and an extended state observer to obtain estimates of UAV motion states, relative poses, and disturbances, which will be used by feedback tracking controllers to provide active disturbance rejection. The navigation and control system will be tested in both indoor and outdoor environments. The project also aims to encourage student participation in autonomous vehicle research and inform the public about its societal benefits.
