Nonlinear Vector-Projection Control for Agile Fixed-Wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
Juan Carlos Hernández Ramírez,Meyer Nahon,Juan Carlos Hernández Ramírez,Meyer Nahon
Agile fixed-wing aircraft integrate the efficient, high-speed capabilities of conventional fixed-wing platforms with the extreme maneuverability of rotorcraft. This work presents a nonlinear control strategy that harnesses these capabilities to enable autonomous flight through aggressive, time-constrained, three-dimensional trajectories. The cascaded control structure consists of two parts; an inn...
