UAV Control on the Basis of 3D Landmark Bearing-Only Observations
نویسندگان
چکیده
The article presents an approach to the control of a UAV on the basis of 3D landmark observations. The novelty of the work is the usage of the 3D RANSAC algorithm developed on the basis of the landmarks' position prediction with the aid of a modified Kalman-type filter. Modification of the filter based on the pseudo-measurements approach permits obtaining unbiased UAV position estimation with quadratic error characteristics. Modeling of UAV flight on the basis of the suggested algorithm shows good performance, even under significant external perturbations.

متن کاملStochastic control of UAV on the basis of robust filtering of 3D natural landmarks observations
This work considers the tracking of the UAV (unmanned aviation vehicle) on the basis of on-board observations of natural landmarks including azimuth and elevation angles. It is assumed that either UAV’s cameras are able to capture the angular position of reference point and to measure the angles of the sight line. Such measurements involve the real position of UAV in implicit form, and therefor...
متن کاملTarget detection Bridge Modelling using Point Cloud Segmentation Obtained from Photogrameric UAV
In recent years, great efforts have been made to generate 3D models of urban structures in photogrammetry and remote sensing. 3D reconstruction of the bridge, as one of the most important urban structures in transportation systems, has been neglected because of its geometric and structural complexity. Due to the UAV technology development in spatial data acquisition, in this study, the point cl...
