Terrain relative localization for lunar entry, descent, and landing
… inertial navigation systems over long distances, relative navigation techniques are better suited to fill this need. Chief among these techniques is terrain relative navigation. Terrain relative navigation uses the surface features of a planetary body and an onboard map of the planetary surface to …

Cooperative Perception in Autonomous Ground Vehicles using a Mobile Robot Testbed
… is broken down into sub-tasks of cooperative relative localization and map merging. Cooperative relative localization is achieved using visual and inertial sensors, where a computer-vision based camera relative pose estimation technique, augmented with position information, is used to provide …

Autonomous UAV-UGV robot collaboration for exploration and mapping of unknown environments
… multirobot system to overcome the challenges of relative localization and obstacle detection. A novel method is proposed for autonomously determining the UGVs’ starting poses using ArUco markers visible to the UAV, resulting in the initialization of a global merged map. A second method is …

Multi-Agent Relative Pose Estimation with Ultra-Wideband Ranging
Inter-agent relative localization is critical for any multi-robot system operating in the absence of external positioning infrastructure or prior environmental knowledge. Motivated by the applications of nuclear non-proliferation, radiological search, and radiological mapping, this thesis explores …

Localization and Optimization Problems for Camera Networks
… tracking and motion. First, we consider relative localization in sensor networks, and we tackle the issue of investigating the error propagation, in terms of the mean error on each component of the optimal estimator of the position vector. The relative error is computed as a function of …

Multi-Transceiver Free-Space-Optical Structures for Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks
… of FSO transceivers and consider efficient relative localization of nodes on a 3 dimensional terrain. Later, we focus on a prototype implementation of such a multi-element FSO antenna and auto-alignment protocol and demonstrate that the proposed system is implementable using off-the-shelf …
