MONOTONIC PARTITIONING IN UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE SEARCH AND SURVEILLANCE

摘要

In a particular embodiment, monotonic partitioning in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) search and surveillance is disclosed that includes receiving, by server, a request for search route information, the request including a geographical search area, transforming the geographical search area into a plurality of monotonic partitions, determining, for each monotonic partition, a sweep search pattern for UAV navigation, and generating, in dependence upon the search patterns, search route information for one or more UAVs.
