Heterogeneous computer networks of critical application

The monograph is written in the industry that is rapidly developing and is associated with the creation and operation of heterogeneous computer networks based on the groups (flocks and sub-swarms) of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The issues of using monitoring and technological networks are considered. Also, shows the elaboration and the creation of new algorithms, capable of reducing the amount of computing onboard UAV and to reduce the human intervention to preventing collisions and critical situations caused by failure or loss of control of individual UAVs. The monograph analyzes general issues of increasing the efficiency of operation and lengthening the lifetime of UAV units with various designs and circuitry solutions. Details are given to ensure the stability of communication, improve the security of the transmitted data between the components of the cyber-physical system (CPS) by wireless communication channels. Prospects of the perfection of such systems are formulated. The book will be useful for students, lecturers, and specialists, who are interested in problems of using UAVs taking into account their group behavior.
