Optical Navigation Sensor for Runway Relative Positioning of Aircraft during Final Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
Precise navigation is often performed by sensor fusion of different sensors. Among these sensors, optical sensors use image features to obtain the position and attitude camera. Runway relative during final approach a special case where robust continuous detection runway required. This paper presents threshold marker method for monocular cameras introduces an on-board real-time implementation with flight test results. Results narrow wide field-of-view optics are compared. The processing also evaluated on data captured system. pure this increases redundancy because it does not require input from inertial as most detectors.

Noise-Sensitive Final Approach Trajectory Optimization for Runway-Independent Aircraft
Runway-independent aircraft have been proposed to increase passenger throughput at crowded urban airports via the use of vertiports or stub runways. Simultaneous noninterfering (SNI) traffic procedures will minimize impact on existing fixed-wing traffic. This paper introduces a SNI trajectory generation algorithm that treats existing fixed-wing traffic corridors as impenetrable obstacles and op...
متن کاملAveraging Aircraft Runway Approach Paths
Aircraft do not follow the same route each ight so an accurate analysis of the underlying areas aaected by noise cannot be achieved by considering individual aircraft tracks. This paper describes a method for combining multiple images of aircraft tracks to obtain anàverage' ight path using the Distance Transform as a pre-processing step. The procedures used to average the images of aircraft tra...
متن کاملReal-Time Vision-Based Relative Aircraft Navigation
This paper describes two vision-based techniques for the navigation of an aircraft relative to an airborne target using only information from a single camera fixed to the aircraft. These techniques are motivated by problems such as “see and avoid”, pursuit, formation flying, and in-air refueling. By applying an Extended Kalman Filter for relative state estimation, both the velocity and position...
متن کاملCooperative Relative Positioning for Wireless Sensor Networks
In this paper, we present a completely distributed relative positioning algorithm for wireless sensor networks that does not require any external infrastructure support in the form of landmark nodes or manual initialization. Our algorithm uses measured inter-node distances and localizes the entire network in a local coordinate system upto a global translation, rotation and reflection. We benchm...
متن کاملAn Autonomous UAV with an Optical Flow Sensor for Positioning and Navigation
A procedure to control all six DOF (degrees of freedom) of a UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) without an external reference system and to enable fully autonomous flight is presented here. For 2D positioning the principle of optical flow is used. Together with the output of height estimation, fusing ultrasonic, infrared and inertial and pressure sensor data, the 3D position of the UAV can be comput...
