Satisficing Game Theory for Enhancing Autonomy in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

Damiano Taurino, Sergio Taraglio, Alessandra Tedeschi, Alberto Pasquini, Vincenzo Nanni

Abstract


An innovative approach to increase autonomy and decision making ability of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) is here discussed. A Game Theory based decentralized algorithm for Conflict Detection and Resolution is proposed in order to ensure separation between different UAVs sharing the same airspace obtaining an overall traffic optimization. The algorithm is described in details and some computer-based simulations results about different traffic scenarios are presented, discussed and compared with the ones from other works. A real time simulation environment for realistic experimentations of the solution is also introduced and described.

Disclaimer/Regarding indexing issue:

We have provided the online access of all issues and papers to the indexing agencies (as given on journal web site). It’s depend on indexing agencies when, how and what manner they can index or not. Hence, we like to inform that on the basis of earlier indexing, we can’t predict the today or future indexing policy of third party (i.e. indexing agencies) as they have right to discontinue any journal at any time without prior information to the journal. So, please neither sends any question nor expects any answer from us on the behalf of third party i.e. indexing agencies.Hence, we will not issue any certificate or letter for indexing issue. Our role is just to provide the online access to them. So we do properly this and one can visit indexing agencies website to get the authentic information. Also: DOI is paid service which provided by a third party. We never mentioned that we go for this for our any journal. However, journal have no objection if author go directly for this paid DOI service.
