Acquisition Costs

The recent evolution of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) as measuring instruments has become attractive for many surveying applications in civil engineering including the volumetric computations of earthworks in the construction of a highway. The application of softcopy photogrammetry to UAV acquired imagery has the potential to reduce data acquisition costs, time and with suitable accuracy for earthworks mapping and volumetrics. Their performance, however, is not well understood for these applications. This investigation tests the ability of the UAVs and photogrammetric software to generate volumes for the layers of material used in road construction, as well as to analyse their accuracies and limitations. Specifically, this study assesses the feasibility of UAV-based surveying in generating volumes for general earthworks in highway/road construction. Additionally, the study compares the performance of UAV-based surveying to that of Total Station surveying. Performance is evaluated along the required time for image acquisition and generating the final products, the required personnel and overall cost of survey. A segment of the Churchill Roosevelt Extension to Manzanilla was used in the assessment.

This paper presents analyzed questions of the safety of the information transferred by the radio connection link of the Polish UAV project “Aircraft for monitoring” SAMONIT. This safety is especially important for the design and use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV). This paper also presents the structure of the SAMONIT communication system, security threats to the radio connection system, and possible measures to ensure secure information.

Certificateless Signature

In unmanned aerial vehicle networks (UAVNs), unmanned aerial vehicles with restricted computing and communication capabilities can perform tasks in collaborative manner. However, communications in UAVN confront many security issues, for example, malicious entities may launch impersonate attacks. In UAVN, the command center (CMC) needs to perform mutual authentication with unmanned aerial vehicles in clusters. The aggregator (AGT) can verify the authenticity of authentication request from CMC; then, the attested authentication request is broadcasted to the reconnaissance unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in the same cluster. The authentication responses from UAVs can be verified and aggregated by AGT before being sent to CMC for validation. Also, existing solutions cannot resist malicious key generation center (KGC). To address these issues, this paper proposes a pairing-free authentication scheme (CLAS) for UAVNs based on the certificateless signature technology, which supports batch verification at both AGT and CMC sides so that the verification efficiency can be improved greatly. Security analysis shows that our CLAS scheme can guarantee the unforgeability for (attested) authentication request and (aggregate) responses in all phases. Performance analysis indicates that our CLAS scheme enjoys practical efficiency.
