Turning path tracking control technology for fixed-wing UAV to realize video transmission relay station

抄録

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) are currently used to provide many kinds of services. A video transmission relay station system using fixed-wing UAV that can fly for a long time are now investigated. In the system, the fixed-wing UAV needs to keep turning in the area accurately as a relay station. To realize that we propose a new turning path control system by both switching the roll angle commands to satisfy the balance of both forces and azimuth control to correct the turning radius deviation. The effectiveness was confirmed by computer simulations assuming an actual flight aircraft.
