In this paper a nonlinear control has been designed using the dynamic inversion approach
for automatic landing of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), along with associated path …

One of fixed-wing aircraft type is the fixed-wing unmanned aircraft or fixed-wing Unmanned
Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The UAV flies without a pilot in the aircraft. All aircraft movements are …

Automatic landing of aircraft is a challenging guidance and control task that requires multiple
feedback loops and a precise sequence of actions. Increasing operational flexibility and …

This paper aims to develop an applicable nonlinear control technique for aeroengines. An
approximate nonlinear model is presented and a rational identification procedure is given …

A nonlinear image-based visual servo control algorithm for autonomous landing of a fixed
wing aircraft is described. The primary sensor system is a vision sensor yielding a sequence …

This paper develops a hybrid control strategy that provides autonomous transition between
hovered and leveled flights to a model-scale fixed-wing aircraft. The aircraft's closed-loop …

Issues of gain scheduling control for aero-engines are addressed in this paper. An aero-
engine is a system with high nonlinearity, and the requirement on controlling performance is …

Control-oriented non-linear modelling is the requirement of reliable non-linear control for
aeroengines. The complex engine model must be simplified such that advanced non-linear …

This thesis concerns with the design and development of automatic flight controller
strategies for the autonomous landing of fixed wing unmanned aircraft subject to severe …

Fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are used in several applications from
agriculture to search and rescue. An interesting feature of these vehicles is their ability to …
