Abstract :
Summary form only given. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have made huge progress in military and civilian missions, ranging from surveillance, reconnaissance, to logistics and transportation. Particularly, to meet requirements of high-demand applications, it is necessary to develop advanced unmanned systems that are capable of autonomously navigating in cluttered indoor and outdoor GPS-denied environments, such as hostile buildings, radiation contaminated areas and forest.
