The UAV industry is developing rapidly and drones are increasingly used for monitoring industrial facilities. When designing such systems, operating companies have to find a system configuration of multiple drones that is near-optimal in terms of cost while achieving the required monitoring quality. Stochastic influences such as failures and maintenance have to be taken into account. Model-based systems engineering supplies tools and methods to solve such problems. This paper presents a method to model and evaluate such UAV systems with coloured Petri nets. It supports a modular view on typical setup elements and different types of UAVs and is based on UAV application standards. The model can be easily adapted to the most popular flight tasks and allows for estimating the monitoring frequency and determining the most appropriate grouping and configuration of UAVs, monitoring schemes, air time and maintenance periods. An important advantage is the ability to consider drone maintenance processes. Thus, the methodology will be useful in the conceptual design phase of UAVs, in monitoring planning, and in the selection of UAVs for specific monitoring tasks. |
