EEC-0649172Yufang JinThis award for an REU site to the University of Texas at San Antonio will provide undergraduate students research experiences in nonlinear control and its applications in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and Unmanned Ground Vehicles (VGVs). The research projects will include trajectory planning, obstacle avoidance, advanced nonlinear controls of UAVs and UGVs, system simulation and performance analysis, validation of the algorithms with real UAV/UGV platform. The REU program will serve to enrich the research experiences of the participants by exposing the state-of-the-art developments in UAVs/UGVs and by integrating research into real world applications. Also, the program will enhance the undergraduate students' creative thinking and independent problem solving capability and will motivate students to continue graduate studies in science and engineering.Recruitment efforts will be targeted to underrepresented minorities, with a special emphasis placed on the Hispanic population. The research topics for the REU Site program are of interest to our national security and defense. This study will benefit the US border patrol team with long lasting autonomous inspection systems. It can also save time and personnel while exploring hostile areas.

这份授予德克萨斯大学圣安东尼奥分校的REU项目将为本科生提供非线性控制及其在无人机（uav）和无人地面车辆（vgv）中的应用研究经验。研究项目将包括轨迹规划、避障、无人机和UGV的先进非线性控制、系统仿真和性能分析、在实际无人机/UGV平台上验证算法。REU项目将通过展示无人机/ ugv的最新发展，并将研究整合到现实世界的应用中，从而丰富参与者的研究经验。此外，该计划将提高大学生的创造性思维和独立解决问题的能力，并将激励学生继续在科学和工程研究生学习。招聘工作将以代表性不足的少数民族为目标，特别强调西班牙裔人口。REU站点计划的研究主题与我们的国家安全和国防有关。这项研究将使美国边境巡逻队受益，他们拥有持久的自主检查系统。它还可以在探索敌对地区时节省时间和人员。
