نویسندگان
چکیده
Due to the nonlinear and asymmetric input constraints of fixed-wing UAVs, it is a challenging task design controllers for UAV formation control. Distance-based control does not require global positions as well alignment coordinates, which brings in great convenience designing distributed law. Motivated by facts mentioned above, this paper, problem distance-based UAVs with studied. A low-gain controller, generalized gradient controller potential function, proposed. The desired can be achieved designed under proven stability. Finally, effectiveness proposed method verified numerical simulation semi-physical simulation.

Model Predictive Control for a Swarm of Fixed Wing Uavs
This paper describes an algorithm for the control of a swarm of UAVs based on decentralized MPC. For each UAV, our algorithm first determines the trajectory taking into account the obstacles and the constraints on the aircraft performance. Then basing on a robust MPC algorithm, optimal guidance laws are calculated and tracked by the UAVs by means of local PIDs controllers. Our approach also all...
متن کاملLPV model reference control for fixed-wing UAVs ?
This paper proposes a linear parameter varying (LPV) model reference-based control for fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), which achieves agile and high performance tracking objectives in extended flight envelopes, e.g. when near stall or deep stall flight conditions are considered. Each of the considered control loops (yaw, pitch and airspeed) delivers an error model that can be reshap...
متن کاملFault-Tolerant Control of a Nonlinear Process with Input Constraints
A Fault-Tolerant Control (FTC) methodology has been presented for nonlinear processes being imposed by control input constraints. The proposed methodology uses a combination of Feedback Linearization and Model Predictive Control (FLMPC) schemes. The resulting constraints in the transformed process will be dependent on the actual evolving states, making their incorporation in the de...
متن کاملVision Based Control for Fixed Wing UAVs Inspecting Locally Linear Infrastructure Using Skid-to-Turn Maneuvers
The following paper proposes a novel application of Skid-to-Turn maneuvers for fixed wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) inspecting locally linear infrastructure. Fixed wing UAVs, following the design of manned aircraft, commonly employ Bank-to-Turn maneuvers to change heading and thus direction of travel. Whilst effective, banking an aircraft during the inspection of ground based features hin...
متن کاملMonitoring Atmospheric Phenomena within Low-Altitude Clouds with a Fleet of Fixed-Wing UAVs
Atmospheric scientists have been early users of UAVs, from which significant scientific results have rapidly been obtained (e.g. [1]). UAVs indeed bring forth several advantages over manned flight to probe atmospheric phenomena: low cost, ease of deployment, possibility to evolve in high turbulences [2], etc. Yet atmospheric phenomena span the three spatial dimensions and evolve over time, and ...
