Uncrewed and Autonomous Systems Interoperability and Control

Catalog description

This course allows students to examine the technologies, processes, and concepts associated with uncrewed and autonomous systems interoperability and control. Students will analyze command, control, and communication (C3), automation, and interaction requirements in uncrewed and autonomous system applications and evaluate concepts, methods, and technologies affording the functional control and operational capabilities of such systems. Students will be introduced to the types and classifications of system control elements, including their applications, capabilities, limitations, and constraints. Students will investigate concepts, methods, and technologies employed in uncrewed and autonomous system C3, automation, and interoperation and examine associated issues and current application challenges in order to evaluate, recommend, and defend potential solutions.
