PLANE: ドローンのインターネットをモデリングする拡張可能なオープンソースフレームワーク

原文アブストラクト

Python Library for simulating unManNed vehiclEs(PLANE) is an open source software module, written in Python, that focuses on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), on their movements and on the mechanics of flight, thus devoting particular attention to the equations that describe drones' movement. In the context of the Internet of Drones (IoD), the module can be widely used for the study of the mutual control of position/coordination in scenarios in which drones may find obstacles, as it happens in densely populated urban scenarios. Emphasis is put on ease of use, performance evaluation, documentation, and Application Programming Interface (API) consistency. The software tool has minimal dependencies and is distributed under MIT License. Source code, binaries, and documentation can be downloaded from GitHub.
