Nonlinear Control for UAV Formation Flying
2008
Abstract Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) became a technology that have attracted considerable interest in the commercial markets for the military and civilian uses, such as surveillance and reconnaissance, aerial surveys for natural sources, traffic monitoring, early forest fire detection etc. This paper deals with Nonlinear and Model Predictive Control (MPC) of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) flying in formation. Although, UAVs present numerous advantages over the manned aircrafts, they face challenges in various aspects of control in autonomous mode, and even more, in formation flying. An advanced control system is demonstrated as a possible solution to improve and increase the level of the autonomous mode and flying capabilities of UAVs. This paper deals with advanced control system of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) flying in formation.
