Multi-robot repeated area coverage [PDF]
Autonomous Robots, 2013 We address the problem of repeated coverage of a target area, of any polygonal shape, by a team of robots having a limited visual range. Three distributed Cluster-based algorithms, and a method called Cyclic Coverage are introduced for the problem. The goal is to evaluate the performance of the repeated coverage algorithms under the effects of the ...

Area Coverage With Multiple Capacity-Constrained Robots
IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, 2022 The area coverage problem is the task of efficiently servicing a given two-dimensional surface using sensors mounted on robots such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs). We present a novel formulation for generating coverage routes for multiple capacity-constrained robots, where capacity can be specified in terms of ...

Active Area Coverage from Equilibrium [PDF]
EasyChair Preprints, 2019 This paper develops a method for robots to integrate stability into actively seeking out informative measurements through coverage. We derive a controller using hybrid systems theory that allows us to consider safe equilibrium policies during active data collection.

K-coverage in regular deterministic sensor deployments [PDF]
, 2013 An area is k-covered if every point of the area is covered by at least k sensors. K-coverage is necessary for many applications, such as intrusion detection, data gathering, and object tracking.

Area coverage under low sensor density [PDF]
2014 Eleventh Annual IEEE International Conference on Sensing, Communication, and Networking (SECON), 2014 This paper presents a solution to the problem of monitoring a region of interest (RoI) using a set of nodes that is not sufficient to achieve the required degree of monitoring coverage. In particular, sensing coverage of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is a crucial issue in projects due to failure of sensors.
