On Optimal Coordinated Search Technique to Find a Randomly Located Target

We present the cooperation between two searchers start at the origin to seek for the pipeline hole. The pipeline searched with random distances and velocities through the time by each searcher. There is no available information about the target position to the searchers all the time. We study this problem in the case of bounded asymmetric and unbounded symmetric hole distribution.Rather than finding the expected value of the time detection, we find the optimal search plan which minimizes this detection time. The effectiveness of this model is illustrated using a numerical example.
