A system configuration process is implemented to verify that each component implemented in a processing system is compatible and includes the appropriate software version. Electronic modules or components of the system are queried as part of a pre-operation check for their installed software version data. The verification is completed by comparing the software version data to a system configuration definition that is permanently stored in system memory. A user can query the components as components are added, removed or upgraded, to verify that the system's actual configuration corresponds to that of the system configuration definition.

A system collaboratively and autonomously plans and controls a team of vehicles having subsystems within an environment. The system includes a mission management component, a communication component, a payload controller component, and an automatic target recognition component. The mission management component plans and executes a mission plan of the team and plans and executes tasks of the vehicles. The communication component plans communication and networking for the team. The communication component manages quality of service for the team. The communication component directs communication subsystems for the team and for the vehicles. The payload controller component directs and executes sensor subsystems for the team and for the vehicles. The automatic target recognition component processes and fuses information from the sensor subsystems and from the vehicles for use by the mission management component.

A system maintains communication between a plurality of unmanned vehicles within an environment. The system includes a sensor component and an evaluator. The sensor component senses objects within the environment. The sensor component is located on a first unmanned vehicle. The evaluator evaluates data from the sensor component. The evaluator is located on the first unmanned vehicle. The evaluator compares data for the first unmanned vehicle and a second unmanned vehicle and determines whether a trajectory of one of the first and second unmanned vehicles may be modified to maintain communication between the first unmanned vehicle and the second unmanned vehicle.

434011000

A system predictively determines data transmitted within a wireless network in accordance with a mission plan and changes to the mission plan. The system includes a first team member and a second team member. The first team member includes a first module for evaluating the changes to the mission plan encountered by the first team member and determining whether to transmit information of the change to the second team member. The first team member further includes a second module containing rules for evaluating changes to the mission plan encountered by the first team member. The first module utilizes the rules of the second module to predictively alter the mission plan.

4554522, 455450

A system predictively allocates bandwidth within a wireless network in accordance with a mission plan. The system includes a first team member and a second team member. The first team member predicts subsequent communication demand by the second team member in accordance with the mission plan. The second team member predicts subsequent communication demand by the first team member in accordance with the mission plan. The first team member is allocated a bandwidth commensurate with a predicted need of the first team member and a predicted need of the second team member. The second team member being allocated a bandwidth commensurate with a predicted need of the first team member and the second team member.
