چکیده
This paper proposes a technique for planar trajectory following for an autonomous aerial robot. A trajectory is modeled as a planar spline. A behavior-based control system which stabilizes the robot and enforces trajec-tory following, has been implemented and tested on an autonomous helicopter. Results from two ight experiments are presented. The trajectory tracking error is on the order of the size of the robot (1.8 m). Given the inherent error in GPS positioning, and environmental disturbances (wind), this is quite reasonable.

Central Command Architecture for High-Order Autonomous Unmanned Aerial Systems
This paper is the first in a two-part series that introduces an easy-to-implement central command architecture for high-order autonomous unmanned aerial systems. This paper discusses the development and the second paper presents the flight test results. As shown in this paper, the central command architecture consists of a central command block, an autonomous planning block, and an autonomous f...
متن کاملFlight and In-Water Experiments of Autonomy and Human Interface Technologies with Multiple Unmanned Systems
This paper describes operator, flight, and in-water experiments with autonomy and human interface technologies for management of multiple unmanned air, sea surface, and undersea vehicles. The vehicles were managed by a single operator based on high-level mission objectives, constraints, risks, and priorities. The scenarios explored contingencies and changes in tasking that required both operato...
متن کاملRecent results in robust adaptive flight control systems
Adaptive control has been increasingly used in flight control of late, with notable technology transitions to autonomous flight platforms such as Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM), X–36 Tailless Fighter Agility Research Aircraft, NASA Generic Transport Model (GTM), and Boeing Phantom Ray. Given the need to make these flight systems autonomous, the spotlight, more than ever, is firmly on adapt...
متن کاملDevelopment of an Autonomous Tactical Reconnaissance Platform
A man-portable, autonomously controlled aerial surveillance platform has been developed. The ultimate goal is to provide a method for obtaining remote sensing data using an inexpensive, expendable device. The Autonomous Tactical Reconnaissance Platform (ATRP) consists of a standard parafoil that carries an instrumentation payload for autonomous flight and remote sensing capabilities for both mi...
متن کامل(U) Dynamic Distributed Cooperative Control of Multiple Heterogeneous Resources
This research is concerned with dynamically determining appropriate flight patterns for a set of autonomous UAVs in an urban environment, with multiple mission goals. The UAVs are tasked with searching the urban region for targets of interest, and tracking those targets that have been detected. We assume that there are limited communication capabilities between the UAVs, and that there exist po...
