JSBSim Library for Flight Dynamics Modelling of a mini-UAV
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents using of JSBSim library for flight dynamics modelling of a mini-UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle). The first part of the paper is about general information of UAVs and about the fundamentals of airplane flight mechanics, forces, moments, and the main components of typical aircraft. The main section briefly describes a flight dynamics model and summarizes the information about JSBSim library. Then, a way of using the library for the modelling of a mini-UAV is shown. A basic script for lifting and stabilization of the UAV has been developed and described. Finally, the results of JSBSim test are discussed.

متن کاملModeling and Autonomous Flight Simulation of a Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
This paper describes the use of FlightGear, an open-source flight simulator, and JSBSim, an open source flight dynamics model, to model and simulate a small autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). A small commercial electric engine Cessna-182 radio controlled (RC) aircraft was chosen to represent the UAV. The first step was to create the required JSBSim aircraft configuration files by using t...
متن کاملFlight Control of a Trirotor Mini-UAV for Enhanced Situational Awareness
This paper focuses on a critical component of the situational awareness (SA), the control of autonomous vertical flight for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Autonomous vertical flight is a challenging but important task for tactical UAVs to achieve high level of autonomy under adverse conditions. With the SA strategy, we proposed a two stage flight control procedure using two autonomous contro...

متن کاملTrim and Maneuverability Analysis Using a New Constrained PSO Approach of a UAV
Performance characteristic of an Unmanned Air Vehicle (UAV) is investigated using a newly developed heuristic approach. Almost all flight phases of any air vehicle can be categorized into trim and maneuvering flights. In this paper, a new envelope called trim-ability envelope, is introduced and sketched within the conventional flight envelope for a small UAV. Optimal maneuverability of the inte...
