CONFERENCE · ICUAS 2025
Optimization-Based Motion Planning for Vector Field Following in Dynamic Environments
D. Akhihiero, U. Olawoye, and G. A. Pereira
International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS) · 2025
Presents an optimization-based motion planning approach for vector field following in dynamic environments, enabling UAVs to track smooth trajectories while reacting to changing obstacles and environmental conditions.
CONFERENCE · PLANS 2025
Experimental Analysis of Quadcopter Drone Hover Constraints for Localization Improvements
U. Olawoye, D. Akhihiero, and J. N. Gross
IEEE/ION Position, Location and Navigation Symposium (PLANS) · 2025
Experimental analysis of hover constraints in quadcopter UAVs and how they can be exploited as pseudo-measurements to improve localization accuracy in cooperative navigation scenarios.
CONFERENCE · PLANS 2025
Analysis of the Unscented Transform for Cooperative Localization with Only Inter-Vehicle Ranging Information
U. Olawoye, C. Kilic, and J. N. Gross
IEEE/ION Position, Location and Navigation Symposium (PLANS) · 2025
Analyzes the unscented transform (UT) as a nonlinear estimation tool for cooperative localization using only inter-vehicle ranging measurements, evaluating accuracy and consistency in GNSS-denied conditions.

JOURNAL · NAVIGATION
Cooperative Localization for GNSS-Denied Subterranean Navigation: A UAV–UGV Team Approach
D. Akhihiero, U. Olawoye, S. Das, and J. Gross
NAVIGATION: Journal of the Institute of Navigation · vol. 71, no. 4 · 2024
A cooperative localization framework for a UAV–UGV team in GNSS-denied subterranean environments. Integrates Factor Graph Optimization for UAV localization and SLAM for UGV navigation, validated through simulation and real-world tunnel experiments.

CONFERENCE · PLANS 2023
UAV Position Estimation Using a LiDAR-Based 3D Object Detection Method
U. Olawoye and J. N. Gross
IEEE/ION Position, Location and Navigation Symposium (PLANS) · 2023
A LiDAR-based UAV position estimation method using PointPillars deep learning architecture. A dataset of 7,000+ annotated LiDAR scans was created, achieving a 30% improvement in localization accuracy over traditional point cloud clustering methods.
