Navigation Systems for Littoral Autonomous Proximity Operations
Abstract
A research program built upon analytical and data driven modeling, conceptual design, statisticalanalysis, state estimation and filtering approaches and sensor system technologies is proposed toaddress the fundamental challenges involved in autonomous aircraft landing problems. Novelsensor system technologies are proposed to provide high speed rate measurements of the relativemotion state between the moving platforms. Approaches to estimate the relative motion states ofthe unmanned vehicle with respect to the moving platform from the measurements, while takingthe measurement and model uncertainties into account are proposed. Proposed research institutesrobust data driven measures that dictate the automation of aircraft guidance and control modes,based upon the relative motion states, vehicle agility metrics, sea state estimates and the associateduncertainties.
