System and Method for Sensor Scheduling
First Claim
1. A system for sensor scheduling comprising:
- a plurality of sensors operable to perform one or more tasks;
a processor operable to;
receive one or more missions, wherein each mission comprises one or more tasks to be performed by one or more of the plurality of sensors;
receive one or more environmental conditions associated with a respective mission of the one or more missions;
select, for a respective task associated with the respective mission, one or more of the plurality of sensors to perform the respective task; and
schedule the respective task to be performed by the selected one or more sensors, wherein;
the scheduling is based at least on a value associated with the respective task;
the value associated with the respective task is determined based at least on an options pricing model; and
wherein the options pricing model is based at least on the importance of the respective task to the success of the respective mission and one or more scheduling demands.

Abstract
A system for sensor scheduling includes a plurality of sensors operable to perform one or more tasks and a processor operable to receive one or more missions and one or more environmental conditions associated with a respective mission. Each mission may include one or more tasks to be performed by one or more of the plurality of sensors. The processor is further operable to select one or more of the plurality of sensors to perform a respective task associated with the respective mission. The processor may also schedule the respective task to be performed by the selected one or more sensors. The scheduling is based at least on a task value that is determined based on an options pricing model. The options pricing model is based at least on the importance of the respective task to the success of the respective mission and one or more scheduling demands.
