Fast Mode Switching for a Thrust Vectored
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aircraft operate in diierent modes during ight, corresponding to diierent ight conditions and control schemes. We use diierential atness of an approximate model of the pitch dynamics of a thrust vectored aircraft to achieve fast switching between those modes. We investigate some methods to compensate for the perturbations to atness. Simulations and experimental data are provided to validate the approach.

متن کاملIn-Trim Flight Investigations of a Conceptual Fluidic Thrust-Vectored Unmanned Tail-Sitter Aircraft
The feasibility of using a stand alone Fluidic Thrust-Vectoring (FTV) system for the purpose of longitudinal trim of an unmanned aerial vehicle is the focus of the research presented in this paper. Since the fluidic thrust vectoring requires high pressure secondary air to deflect the engine exhaust gases, this research also provides an analytical toolset for preliminary sizing of a suitable sec...
متن کاملLQG Flight Control of VTAV for Enhanced Situational Awareness
This paper focuses on a critical component of the situational awareness (SA), the control of autonomous vertical flight for vectored thrust aerial vehicle (VTAV). With the SA strategy, we proposed a linear-quadratic-Gaussian (LQG) flight control procedure for an unmanned helicopter model with vectored thrust configuration. This LQG control for chosen model of VTAV has been verified by simulatio...
متن کاملQuaternion-based Finite-time Sliding Mode Controller Design for Attitude Tracking of a Rigid Spacecraft during High-thrust Orbital Maneuver in the Presence of Disturbance Torques
In this paper, a quaternion-based finite-time sliding mode attitude controller is designed for a spacecraft performing high-thrust orbital maneuvers, with cold gas thrusters as its actuators. The proposed controller results are compared with those of a quaternion feedback controller developed for the linearized spacecraft dynamics, in terms of settling time, steady-state error, number of thrust...
متن کاملDesign and Implementation of a Thrust-Vectored Unmanned Tail-Sitter with Reconfigurable Wings
In this paper, we present the development of a reconfigurable hybrid unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV): U-Lion [Ang et al., 11th IEEE Int. Conf. Control Automation (ICCA), pp. 750–755]. U-Lion is a small-scale UAV that is capable of vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) and fixedwing Cruise modes through its unique mechanical design. Mainly built with carbon fiber and expanded polyolefin (EPO) foam, ...
