Drone Surveillance Project
Project Area of Specialization Cyber SecurityProject SummaryAerial security means performing security-aimed monitoring and surveillance operations with the help of airborne vehicles. This kind of activities suggest that human officers (security organizations, law enforcement, police etc.) would be able to remotely monitor and view video and data acquired from Drones while planning and evaluating their operations. The spectrum of applications where drones are used for security purposes is vast: scouting and reporting emergencies, monitoring accidents and crimes, surveillance of a certain landscape area, operating in highly busy and pedestrians as well as their tracking from up in the sky, and so on. The project will serve as a bridge to connect actual happening in areas that cannot be navigated easily by security personnel of corporate institution as the Drone will be used to hover and record the actual happening as it transmit to a ground station which records and analyses the events as they streams in, also due its capability of flying over different altitudes the drone can generally be used on areas with rugged terrains or over water bodies for a time dependent on its power capacity

Benefits of the ProjectRemote Monitoring
Drones in security applications contain a unique ability to access distant and difficult to reach locations more quickly than hired personnel. This is particularly useful when staff security is limited within facilities such as large plant operations or areas containing expensive inventory at a distance.
Low Light Operations
The introduction of FLIR (Forward Looking InfraRed) and other night vision imaging utilities in addition to their reduction in price over the last few years has removed the limitation of after dark surveillance for security teams. Competitively priced drones come equipped with night vision optics allowing facility security to monitor darkened areas from a fixed location.
Quiet
New drones designed for security often include vibration dampening and brushless motors, cutting the noise levels to roughly half of sound other drones produce. Reduced noise provides a clear advantage when monitoring is called for in response to intrusions at or around a given facility.
Rapid Response
Drone operation provides another substantial benefit when security personnel are called to respond to distant locations. Traditional response taking ten minutes or more may allow an intruding party to exit a scene unidentified, resulting in loss and a missed opportunity for apprehension. Drone coverage in a fraction of that time presents a much greater possibility of evidence gathering and potential arrest.
Technical Details of Final DeliverableThe project will face this challenge by developing a compositional and integrated
drone embedded reference architecture following the IMA principles, adapted to, and still considering,
the drone resource constraints.
6.2.2.1 Processing Partitioning
The main idea is to place functional modules (applications) on processing modules partitioned with
respect to space (resource partitioning) and time (temporal partitioning). Resource partitioning allocates
memory and I/O resources in a static manner via configuration tables (contracts), which guarantee
protection against any modification from other partitions. Temporal partitioning defines a periodic
sequence of slots, statically organized in a time frame, so that functional modules are periodically
executed at fixed times.
6.2.2.2 Communication Partitioning
Communication between function modules (applications) will be placed on shared networks. Like in
processing partitioning, communication is divided into virtual links, with a bounded bandwidth, dedicated
to the traffic from single applications. This guarantees that no function can use the network beyond its
contract.
Applications implement services hosted on the platform partitions. The platform offers basic services
such as scheduling, communications, health monitoring, among others. In this way, applications can be
potentially moved to new platforms with minimal changes to the code. Similarly, a specific platform can
be used to support multiple different applications with slight changes. This approach requires of course
an important change in the design paradigm for all engineering parties to switch from a pure “top-down”
approach (with upper-level design decisions) to a different approach in which applications must use
existing platform services. This is why engineering tools are needed.
6.2.2.4 Standardized Interfaces
In order to enable this level of portability, it is necessary to harmonize the platform definition and the
API to integrate applications in the partitions of this platform. Standardized APIs enable technology
transparency and avoid any impact on an application either during development or execution.
6.2.2.5 Expected Benefits
By following the above principles, drone surveillance pursues the following specific objectives:
Incremental assurance. Applications sharing the same platform can be qualified independently
and changes to one will not impact the assurance achieved by others, as long as the platform
resources allocation is not modified. The scope of re-verification is well-defined and bounded in
case the platform resource allocation and contract are modified. The same applies in case the
platform design is modified (additional services, improved performances, obsolescence
management).
