Abstract: A joint search method for UAV multiobjective path planning in an urban low altitude environment first constructs a static safety index map based on static known obstacles. Meanwhile, based on proactively detected obstacles that are not marked on a geographic map by a UAV, the method constructs online a dynamic safety index map. Second, a multiobjective path planning problem is solved using a joint offline and online search method. Moreover, this method first plans offline the least cost path from a starting point to an end point and then invokes the online search scheme to replan online a changed path when the UAV detects unknown obstacles. Thus, the UAV can avoid dynamic obstacles effectively. The online search scheme has a small search space and can quickly replan a safe path for the UAV, thus satisfying the requirement of UAV on the real-time path planning.

Abstract: A method for conveying digitally encoded data within a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) using a contention based Media Access Control (MAC) protocol. In the method, a multi-beam access point can transmit a channel contention request and responsively receive channel contention responses. A set of nodes can be determined based upon the channel contention responses. Each node of the determined set can be assigned one beam of the multi-beam access point. The nodes can use the assigned beams to simultaneously communicate with said multi-beam access point in a collision-free fashion along an assigned beam.

Abstract: A method of simultaneously transmitting and receiving multiple data packets over wireless channels among the nodes of a wireless network is provided. The method includes automatically selecting a master sending node and corresponding master receiving node in response to an omni-directionally transmitted request to send during a contention period. The method also includes selecting a slave sending node and corresponding slave receiving node if a spatial reuse ratio correspond to the master-node pair is less than a predetermined threshold and if directional data transmissions between the slave sending node and corresponding slave receiving node avoid interfering with directional data transmissions between the master nodes and other pairs of slave nodes. The method further includes causing the master sending node and slave sending node to directionally transmit data packets during a coordination period.
