Relative coordination has predominant advantage in uncertain environment path planning problem because it denies much of redundant information of the dynamic environment while avoids the rotation transformation which is a big burden in the traditional methods. Based on relative coordination, this paper proposes a trimmed Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm for three dimensional trajectory generation,...
Based on extended set-membership filter (ESMF) and the path planning method in relative velocity coordinates (RVCs), a new 3D multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) systems active cooperative observation method, high precision cooperative observing a moving target by proper planning the behavior of each member vehicle, is proposed. The new method combines the ESMF based cooperative observation method...
This paper describes research on the design, implement and testing of a small-scaled rotorcraft unmanned aerial vehicle (RUAV) system - ServoHeli-20. A turbine-powered UAV weighted less than 10 kg was designed, and its major components tested by a group of undergraduate students at Shenyang Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences in Shenyang, China. The aircraft was designed to reach...
The normal unscented Kalman filter (UKF) suffers from performance degradation and even divergence while mismatch between the noise distribution assumed to be known as a priori by UKF and the true ones in a real system. In this paper, a novel adaptive UKF (AUKF) is developed and applied to nonlinear joint estimation of both time-varying states and parameters. A cost function is built based on the error...
This paper presents a new robust controller design approach to the yaw control of a small-scale helicopter mounted on an experimental platform. The yaw dynamic system is linearized into a linear system, which is modelled by an affine uncertainty model. We proposed a novel robust LQR feedback controller with adaptive mechanisms for the linear system with guaranteed control performance. The feedback...
