Algoritmo para entrega de alarmes em redes de sensores sem fio utilizando veículos aéreos não tripulados

Abstract

This work presents an investigation of a strategy to coordinate a set of static ground sensor nodes (deployed on the ground) and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) carrying a variety of sensors. This coordination aims to provide efficient surveillance and intrusion detection in a given area of interest. To develop this coordination has been used techniques of Emergent Self-Organization. These techniques do not use external or centralized controls, however, generate an emerging global behavior from the small and simple local interactions among the individuals of the system. The ground nodes are setup to trigger alarms in the event of an intruder entrance in the area, while the UAVs receive the alarms and must decide which one is the most skilled to handle the received alarm. In the end, the results show the feasibility of the presented strategy relating to the overhead of sent messages.
