Real-Time System Identification of a Small Multi-Engine Aircraft
"... In-flight identification of an aircraft’s dynamic model can benefit adaptive control schemes by providing estimates of aerodynamic stability derivatives in real time. This information is useful when the dynamic model changes severely in flight such as when faults and failures occur. Moreover a conti ..."

Cooperative Communication Failure Detection for Multiple Vehicle Systems
"... . For such network of interacting subsystems, some degrees of cooperation for diagnosing the possible failures have shown superior security and reliability rather than using non-cooperative approaches. For example, in Ref. 4, a cooperative fault-detection mechanism is proposed for detecting failure ..."

is presented for a team of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV). In order to increase the reliability of sensor fault detection and identification, the method benefits from the capabilities that the team of UAVs offers, by using the additional data from sensors of other UAVs. Furthermore, in Ref. American Institute
