Abstract

The rapid development of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles UAVs technology opens many new application areas. One of these applications is remote monitoring for living entities (Humans or Animals) within a known area for safety and protection purposes. UAVs are programmable to carry missions according to a specified algorithm. Their ability of movements and actions provide solutions with a reasonable cost. However, how a set of UAVs doing a mission behave cooperatively need to be tested and evaluated in a lab with simulation before moving to operation field. In this paper, a model for scanning determined area using a set of cooperative UAVs is developed and tested. The objective is reducing operation time. The set of affecting parameters is examined. The model is simulated using NetLogo agent-based simulation tool. The results of the experiment of a various settings are conducted.
