Automatic Landing Controller of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

Abstract:

This paper presents the soft control strategies for automatic landing of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle and simulation the result of controller. The soft controller parameters can be modify and show off the results response of control surface of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle which can fly to the desirable waypoints along the flight plan, one may freely select a control scheme to stabilize and perform the target tracking with robustness. The main control system of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle is developed from Fuzzy PD+I controller with auto-tuning gain parameters and the simulation is carried out by Matlab/Simulink simulation program including with Aerosim toolbox software. The model of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle for simulation in this paper is selected the model of Aerosonde UAV from Aerosonde PTY LTD., which is developed mathematical model by Unmanned Dynamics.
