Pursuit Evasion From Multiple Pursuers Using Speed Fluctuation

Prasad, Deepika

Abstract Details

2013, MS, University of Cincinnati, Engineering and Applied Science: Electrical Engineering.
An intelligent path planning algorithm for an evader whose objective is to escape capture for as long as possible was designed and implemented on Khepera III robots. To achieve the chase a pursuer algorithm was designed and implemented on two Khepera III robots. This pursuit evasion problem is an unpredictable and dynamically changing environment in which the difficulties faced by the evader when planning an escape route due to the pursuers are corral and capture conditions. The evader considers both the pursuer’s locations and increases or decreases its speed according to the distance between itself and either of the pursuers. It also comes to a stop or reverses into a previous location when need to avoid capture arises. The successful execution of the evader algorithm is analyzed by comparing the results of this speed fluctuation algorithm with one devoid of change in speed. The implementation of the algorithm over Khepera III robots aimed at representing the successfulness of this technique in practical cases, as the work in this field is still relatively new.
