X Abstract

<para> This paper presents the development of a fuzzy guidance system for unmanned aircraft based on waypoints described in a 5-D space: position in 3-dimensions, desired crossing heading, and speed. The aircraft is assumed to be auto piloted in speed, heading, and flight path angle. The proposed system uses standard Takagi&#x2013;Sugeno fuzzy controllers that provide speed, heading, and flight path angle references for the autopilots. In particular, the heading guidance law results in a pipeline of two fuzzy controllers depending on the relative distance between aircraft and waypoint. A trajectory optimization algorithm is used to yield a long-distance guidance law blended with a short-distance guidance law as the waypoint approaches. The system handles sets of not directly flyable waypoints, driving the aircraft on flyable trajectories that try to cross the waypoints at a prescribed altitude and heading. </para>

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
