Mapping quality prediction for RTK/PPK-equipped micro-drones operating in complex natural environment

Jan Skaloud, Davide Antonio Cucci, Laurent Valentin Jospin, Emmanuel Pierre Quentin Clédat

Drone mapping with GNSS-assisted photogrammetry is a highly efficient method for surveying small -or medium- sized areas. However, the mapping quality is not intuitively predictable, particularly in complex environments (with steep and cluttered terrain), ...

Mission Design and GNC for In-Orbit Demonstration of Active Debris Removal Technologies with CubeSats

Volker Gass, Muriel Richard, Camille Sébastien Pirat, Reto Wiesendanger, Federico Belloni, Christophe Dominique Paccolat

Within the frame of the ESA's General Support Technology Programme, two In-Orbit Demonstration (IOD) missions using CubeSat technologies were studied. These IODs aim at alleviating the technical risk inherent to new technologies required for Active Debris ...

Development of TORCH readout electronics for customised MCPs

Christoph Frei

The TORCH detector is being developed for low-momentum particle identification, combining time-of-flight and Cherenkov techniques to achieve charged particle pi/K/p separation up to 10 GeV/c over a flight distance of 10m. This requires a timing resolution ...

Distributed Deconfliction Algorithm for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles with Limited Range and Field of View Sensors

Denis Gillet, Alcherio Martinoli, Steven Adriaan Roelofsen

This paper proposes a novel approach for collision avoidance between Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) with limited range and field of view sensors. The algorithm is designed for unicycle vehicles that need to fly above a specific minimal speed to maintain f ...

Correction of raindrop size distributions measured by Parsivel disdrometers, using a two-dimensional video disdrometer as a reference

Alexis Berne, Timothy Hugh Raupach

The raindrop size distribution (DSD) quantifies the microstructure of rainfall and is critical to studying precipitation processes. We present a method to improve the accuracy of DSD measurements from Parsivel (particle size and velocity) disdrometers, usi ...

Absolutely calibrated Raman lidar as a reference tool in atmospheric humidity profiling

Valentin Simeonov

Raman lidars exploit the proportionality between the intensity of scattered by a Raman process laser radiation and the number density of the scattering molecules to derive water vapor mixing ratio profile. Water vapor/air mixing ratio is directly proportio ...

New diagnostics for density measurement on Frascati Tokamak upgrade

Fabio Avino, Anton Petrov

In FTU, density profile is measured with two new diagnostics: a CO2/CO scanning interferometer and a time-of-flight radar (denominated refractometer). The first, using two scanning beams, can provide a plasma density profile every 62.5 mu s. Two lasers (CO ...

Real-time Full Field Laser Doppler Imaging

Theo Lasser, Marcel Leutenegger, Tyler Nerton Thacher

We present a full field laser Doppler imaging instrument that enables real-time in vivo assessment of blood flow in dermal tissue and skin. The instrument monitors the blood perfusion in an area of about 50cm2 with 480 x 480 pixels per frame at a rate of 1 ...

Dealing with Mid-Air Collisions in Dense Collective Aerial Systems

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Severin Leven

The idea of creating collective aerial systems is appealing because several rather simple flying vehicles could join forces to cover a large area in little time in applications such as monitoring, mapping, search and rescue, or airborne communication relay ...
