An Underactuated Control System Design for Adaptive Autopilot of Fixed-Wing Drones

Simone Baldi et al.

Summary: This article presents a new adaptive autopilot design for fixed-wing UAVs based on uncertain Euler-Lagrange dynamics. The design takes into account the under-actuation, reduced structural knowledge of cross-couplings and trimming points in the dynamics. The effectiveness of the control design is validated through hardware-in-the-loop tests and comparisons with other autopilots.

Power Line Inspection Tasks With Multi-Aerial Robot Systems Via Signal Temporal Logic Specifications

Giuseppe Silano et al.

Summary: A framework for computing feasible and constrained trajectories for a fleet of quad-rotors leveraging on Signal Temporal Logic (STL) specifications has been proposed. The planner allows for the formulation of complex missions, avoiding obstacles, maintaining safe distances, and considering energy minimization. An event-triggered replanner is used to respond to unforeseen events, with numerical simulations and experiments demonstrating the validity and effectiveness of the approach.
