Abstract
A method for enhancing operational efficiency of a remote vehicle using a diagnostic behavior. The method comprises inputting and analyzing data received from a plurality of sensors to determine the existence of deviations from normal operation of the remote vehicle, updating parameters in a reference mobility model based on deviations from normal operation, and revising strategies to achieve an operational goal of the remote vehicle to accommodate deviations from normal operation. An embedded simulation and training system for a remote vehicle. The system comprises a software architecture installed on the operator control unit and including software routines and drivers capable of carrying out mission simulations and training.

19. A method for implementing a retrotraverse software routine for a remote vehicle configured to communicate with an operator control unit when a control signal from the operator control unit is not received, the method comprising:
-
executing the retrotraverse software routine, using a processor, including or in communication with a waypoint routine that maintains a list of time-stamped waypoints stored in a memory to cause the remote vehicle to be navigated according to the retrotraverse software routine, one of the waypoint routine and the retrotraverse software routine generating a return path interconnecting at least two previously-traversed waypoints in reverse order of timestamps, wherein the remote vehicle is navigated successively to a next previous time-stamped waypoint in the list until a control signal is received from the operator control unit. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37)
