Adaptive Control of Variable-Pitch Propellers: Pursuing Minimum-Effort Operation
Travis Henderson,Nikolaos Papanikolopoulos,Travis Henderson,Nikolaos Papanikolopoulos
As Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) become more commonly used in industry, their performance will continue to be challenged. A performance bottleneck that is crucial to overcome is the design of electric propulsion systems for UAVs that operate in disparate flight modes (e.g., hovering and forward-moving flight). While flight mode dissimilarity presents a fundamental design challenge for fixed-geom...
