UAV Control
Technology
Purpose
Development of a UAV fault recovery procedure, based on the STC® technique. It has been implemented and tested on an UAV designed by the customer. UAV has often multiple surfaces for flight control and actuators. The fault recovery state-of-art procedures are based on Linear Quadratic Regulator design, which does not explicitly accounts for limited actuator actions. Such limits may become relevant in case of fault on some of control surfaces.
Value
For most of critical faults, significant improvements have been obtained in control performances such as lateral wind attenuation, turn and pitch manoeuvres.
