An easy-to-customize, low-cost solution for remote imagery is described. The system, denoted ImPROV (Imaging Package for Remote Vehicles), supports multiple cameras, live streaming, long-range encrypted communication using mobile networks, positioning and ...
In this paper we present methodologies for improving the demand-responsiveness of air transportation systems. The main ingredients are the flexibility in transportation capacity provided by an innovative aircraft and an integrated model where supply-demand ...
Place recognition is an essential capability for robotic autonomy. While ground robots observe the world from generally similar viewpoints over repeated visits, other robots, such as small aircraft, experience far more different viewpoints, requiring place ...
For economical and ecological reasons aircraft are required to become more efficient by reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. One way to achieve these objectives is to decrease the weight of the aircraft structure. The reduction is, however, limi ...
This study estimates the potential benefits of continuous descents for more than 480,000 flights to 25 major airports in the National Airspace System. While reduced fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions are expected for these procedures, the benefi ...

Continuous requirements for more efficient aircrafts lead to the design and analysis of novel propulsion configurations, with an example being the boundary layer ingestion. The complexity and integration challenges in such aircraft synergistic propulsion s ...
In airline scheduling problems, integrated decision methodologies have aroused intense interest in the last decade. These integrated approaches allow for more efficient solutions due to the simultaneous decision making process. The studied integrated model ...
The potential for identifying aircraft using one or more radar range profiles, in conjunction with a correlator, is investigated. Two types of filters are described which maximize the expected value of certain correlation peaks. The effectiveness of one ty ...
A new instrument for measuring cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) on board small aircraft is described. Small aircraft are attractive mainly because they are less costly, but they require instruments that are designed for minimum weight, volume, and power con ...
Efficient systems for determining the precise position and orientation of airborne sensors will have a great impact in different remote sensing activities, with consequences in their productivity and therefore substantially increasing their cost effectiven ...
