Recently, there has been growing interest in developing unmanned aircraft systems (UAS)
with advanced onboard autonomous capabilities. This paper describes the current state of …

With the rapid development of computer technology, automatic control technology and
communication technology, research on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has attracted …

Probabilistic inference is the problem of estimating the hidden variables (states or
parameters) of a system in an optimal and consistent fashion as a set of noisy or incomplete …

In this article, we attempt to document a technical overview on modern miniature unmanned
rotorcraft systems. We first give a brief review on the historical development of the rotorcraft …

Problems in the motion control of aircraft are of perennial interest to the control engineer as
they tend to be of complex and nonlinear nature. Modelling and Control of Mini-Flying …

In this paper, we introduce an approach for the efficient solution of motion-planning
problems for time-invariant dynamical control systems with symmetries, such as mobile …

Identification Modeling and Characteristics of Miniature Rotorcraft introduces an approach to
developing a simple and effective linear parameterized model of vehicle dynamics using the …

UNMANNED helicopters are versatile machines that can per-form aggressive maneuvers.
This is evident from the wide range of acrobatic maneuvers executed by expert pilots …

The operation of an autonomous vehicle in an unknown, dynamic environment is a very
complex problem, especially when the vehicle is required to use its full maneuvering …

Birds routinely execute aerial maneuvers that are still well beyond the capabilities of our
best aircraft control systems. During a perching maneuver, birds often exceed 90 degrees in …
