Trajectory Optimization in Single and Dual-UAV Bearing-Only Target Localization
Bearing-only target localization is a fundamental problem in optical measurement and finds extensive applications in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology. Effective trajectory planning establishes favorable observation geometries, thereby enhancing the target localization accuracy of bearing-only UAV systems. This paper proposes an trajectory optimization method for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in bearing-only target localization scenarios. By leveraging the Fisher Information Matrix (FIM), the proposed approach dynamically integrates the geometric configuration and vehicle maneuverability into the optimization framework. Specifically, we introduce a spectrally-weighted FIM objecti...
