Abstract
AbstractReliability models of the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) fleet with battery recharging for the system of monitoring critical objects as nuclear power plants (NPPs) and developed. The general model for describing and assessing availability of a UAV monitoring station (UAVMS) by use of a queuing system model is developed and analyzed in detail. These models consider UAV failures considering a mission plan. Battery recharging is carried out either at the depot or by using autonomous battery maintenance stations (ABMSs) deployed at certain points. Paper presents and discuss a general and partial UAVMS reliability models considering parameters of a ABMS and routings for monitoring. The results of research of the partial reliability models of the UAVMS with the ABMS (UAVMS-ABMS) set considering reliability, structure and routing parameters are described.KeywordsUnmanned aerial vehicleRoutingReliabilityMonitoring stationNuclear power plantAutonomous battery maintenance stations
