Optimal Polygon Decomposition for UAV Survey Coverage Path Planning in Wind

Optimal Polygon Decomposition for UAV Survey Coverage Path Planning in Wind

In this paper, a new method for planning coverage paths for fixed-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) aerial surveys is proposed. Instead of the more generic coverage path planning techniques presented in previous literature, this method specifically concentrates on decreasing flight time of fixed-wi...
