Cover Story: Within the Helmholtz Alliance for Robotic Exploration of Extreme Environments (ROBEX) small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are developed to support an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle during explorations below the Arctic marginal ice zone.
While a variety of consumer grade and professional solutions for autonomous UAV exists, the Arctic environment is still a challenge for small autonomous UAVs. One critical aspect is a reliable heading estimation despite the weak horizontal component of the Earth’s magnetic field in high latitudes. Using two or more Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers, carrier phase-based observations can be utilized to estimate the UAVs orientation. View this paper

Mario Lucido,
Fulvio Schettino and
Gaetano Panariello

Electronics2017, 6(1), 3;https://doi.org/10.3390/electronics6010003

28 December 2016

In this paper, we propose a simple approach for sparse array synthesis. We employ a modified generalized alternate projection algorithm using ℓ 1 -norm constrained minimization in order to achieve the excitation and the position of the element...
