Abstract

In this paper, a so-called LMAT (ocalization algorithm with a obile nchor node based on rilateration) path planning algorithm is being validated using simulations and evaluated in experiments using a real unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Our focus is to find out if the flying path used for our unique scenario, represented by a disastrous event, fulfills the required accuracy. In our scenario, we consider an UAV that moves around buildings and localizes “survived” devices inside a building. This can help to detect victims and to accelerate the rescue process. For this, fast and accurate localization is essential.
