Automatic landing-control for an unmanned aerial vehicle

(2009) Kongzhi Lilun Yu Yinyong/Control Theory and Applications, 26 (12), pp. 1383-1386.

AFFILIATIONS: The 365 Institution, North Western Polytechnic University, Xi'an Shaanxi 710065, China

ABSTRACT: A control method for automatic landing of UAV is proposed and applied to an UAV. Based on the wind tunnel data, we build the small-disturbance equations and the non-linear equations for the UAV by using MATLAB toolbox. With the help of the model, we design the automatic landing scheme and the control law. The flight verification test shows that the control results satisfy the requirements of automatic landing of UAV, with excellent static and dynamic performances.

UAV pioneer unveils new design for long-endurance VTOL aircraft
