چکیده

In this paper, we present control systems for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) which provides aerial support for an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV). The UGV acts as a mobile launching pad for the UAV. The UAV provides additional environmental image feedback to the UGV. Our UAV of choice is a Parrot ArDrone 2.0 quadcopter, a small four rotored aerial vehicle, picked for its agile flight and video feedback capabilities. This paper presents design and simulation of fuzzy logic controllers for performing landing, hovering, and altitude control. Image processing and Mamdani-type inference are used for converting sensor input into control signals used to control the UAV.

Dynamical formation control of wheeled mobile robots based on fuzzy logic

In this paper, the important formation control problem of nonholonomic wheeled mobile robots is investigated via a leader-follower strategy. To this end, the dynamics model of the considered wheeled mobile robot is derived using Lagrange equations of motion. Then, using ADAMS multi-body simulation software, the obtained dynamics of the wheeled system in MATLAB software is verified. After that, ...

Optimized Fuzzy Logic for Nonlinear Vibration Control of Aircraft Semi-active Shock Absorber with Input Constraint (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Landing impact and runway unevenness have proximate consequence on performance of landing gear system and conduce to discomfort of passengers and reduction of the pilot’s capability to control aircraft. Finally, vibrations caused by them result in structure fatigue. Fuzzy logic controller is used frequently in different applications because of simplicity in design and implementation. In the pre...

UAV Quadcopter Landing on a Displaced Target

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are becoming more popular each year, and the applications they can be used for continue to grow as well. One issue faced by UAV quadcopters at the moment is autonomously landing accurately at a home base location that may have changed from its starting position. The solution proposed to this problem is using a GPS signal that gives the quadcopter the approximate ...
