Abstract

Border control, sensitive area monitoring and intrusion detection are surveillance problems of practical import that are well suited to wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we study the application of a swarm of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles to an intrusion detection and tracking problem. We introduce the Boids scheme to maintain the drones team formation in order to deal with coverage issue and collision problem. A contribution of our work is that we do not assume a ground centralized control of the drones; on the contrary, the swarm is considered as a set of autonomous and self organized entities.
