Collaborative Target Tracking using Limited Resources

This C3UV subgroup is interested in the problem of tracking N dispersed targets simultaneously using M UAVs, where M << N. Therefore, we must relocate our UAVs and their onboard sensors to obtain intermittent measurements of our targets, and while our sensors are away from a particular target, we must allow our models of its motion to update its state (position, velocity) estimates.

Initial work will focus on a calculating revisit times and the associated control necessary to continually navigate the UAVs between targets. We must also develop the logic to allocate and reallocate targets to certain, 'nearest', UAVs.
