America's military revolution strategy and structure after the Cold War
No full textIn America's Military Revolution: Strategy and Structure after the Cold War, Lieutenant General William E. Odom delivers a lucid and provocative analysis of how the United States must adapt its national security policies for the future. New needs, goals, dangers, and opportunities exist; they necessitate new strategies and, consequently, new structure. General Odom is not only one of America's distinguished Army officers but also a renowned scholar. He explains how military options and the utility of certain military operations will be different in this new but still dangerous world. Odom describes the new strategic environment in which all security policy must be made and implemented, devoting special attention to the strategic ramifications of developments in Europe, Northeast Asia, Southwest Asia and the Middle East, Central America and the Caribbean. He stresses the central importance of Japan and Germany. According to Odom, "Any stable post-Cold War international system must include these two states as key pillars. All else is secondary." The author examines the rapidly changing nature of war to show the implications those changes have for U.S. force structure. He offers compelling analyses of American needs and capabilities in vital areas of military policy: coalition management, intelligence, space, industrial mobilization, logistics, and research and development. He also unveils important suggestions on Pentagon restructuring that are sure to invite further analysis and lively discussion. General Odom calls for continued debate as the U.S. attempts to redefine the role of its military and improve its capabilities in a volatile international environment. America's Military Revolution will surely widen and contribute to this crucial discussion
Integrated Indoor Positioning System of Greenhouse Robot Based on UWB/IMU/ODOM/LIDAR
No full textConventional mobile robots employ LIDAR for indoor global positioning and navigation, thus having strict requirements for the ground environment. Under the complicated ground conditions in the greenhouse, the accumulative error of odometer (ODOM) that arises from wheel slip is easy to occur during the long-time operation of the robot, which decreases the accuracy of robot positioning and mapping. To solve the above problem, an integrated positioning system based on UWB (ultra-wideband)/IMU (inertial measurement unit)/ODOM/LIDAR is proposed. First, UWB/IMU/ODOM is integrated by the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) algorithm to obtain the estimated positioning information. Second, LIDAR is integrated with the established two-dimensional (2D) map by the Adaptive Monte Carlo Localization (AMCL) algorithm to achieve the global positioning of the robot. As indicated by the experiments, the integrated positioning system based on UWB/IMU/ODOM/LIDAR effectively reduced the positioning accumulative error of the robot in the greenhouse environment. At the three moving speeds, including 0.3 m/s, 0.5 m/s, and 0.7 m/s, the maximum lateral error is lower than 0.1 m, and the maximum lateral root mean square error (RMSE) reaches 0.04 m. For global positioning, the RMSEs of the x-axis direction, the y-axis direction, and the overall positioning are estimated as 0.092, 0.069, and 0.079 m, respectively, and the average positioning time of the system is obtained as 72.1 ms. This was sufficient for robot operation in greenhouse situations that need precise positioning and navigation
Integrated Positioning System of Kiwifruit Orchard Mobile Robot Based on UWB/LiDAR/ODOM
No full textTo address the issue of low positioning accuracy of mobile robots in trellis kiwifruit orchards with weak signal environments, this study investigated an outdoor integrated positioning method based on ultra-wideband (UWB), light detection and ranging (LiDAR), and odometry (ODOM). Firstly, a dynamic error correction strategy using the Kalman filter (KF) was proposed to enhance the dynamic positioning accuracy of UWB. Secondly, the particle filter algorithm (PF) was employed to fuse UWB/ODOM/LiDAR measurements, resulting in an extended Kalman filter (EKF) measurement value. Meanwhile, the odometry value served as the predicted value in the EKF. Finally, the predicted and measured values were fused through the EKF to estimate the robot’s pose. Simulation results demonstrated that the UWB/ODOM/LiDAR integrated positioning method achieved a mean lateral error of 0.076 m and a root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.098 m. Field tests revealed that compared to standalone UWB positioning, UWB-based KF positioning, and LiDAR/ODOM integrated positioning methods, the proposed approach improved the positioning accuracy by 64.8%, 13.8%, and 38.3%, respectively. Therefore, the proposed integrated positioning method exhibits promising positioning performance in trellis kiwifruit orchards with potential applicability to other orchard environments
