PDF-(EBOOK)-Small Unmanned Aircraft: Theory and Practice

Autonomous unmanned air vehicles UAVs are critical to current and future military civil and commercial operations Despite their importance no previous textbook has accessibly introduced UAVs to students in the engineering computer and science disciplinesuntil now Small Unmanned Aircraft provides a concise but comprehensive description of the key concepts and technologies underlying the dynamics control and guidance of fixedwing unmanned aircraft and enables all students with an introductorylevel background in controls or robotics to enter this exciting and important areaThe authors explore the essential underlying physics and sensors of UAV problems including lowlevel autopilot for stability and higherlevel autopilot functions of path planning The textbook leads the student from rigidbody dynamics through aerodynamics stability augmentation and state estimation using onboard sensors to maneuvering through obstacles To facilitate understanding the authors have replaced traditional homework assignments with a simulation project using the MATLABSimulink environment Students begin by modeling rigidbody dynamics then add aerodynamics and sensor models They develop lowlevel autopilot code extended Kalman filters for state estimation pathfollowing routines and highlevel pathplanning algorithms The final chapter of the book focuses on UAV guidance using machine visionDesigned for advanced undergraduate or graduate students in engineering or the sciences this book offers a bridge to the aerodynamics and control of UAV flight.

The subject of aircraft performance is an important part of the JAA Flight Crew Licensing syllabus for the examinations for commercial and airline transport licences, and this book provides a clear and authoritative text on a difficult topic.It will also be of interest to commercial pilots for their annual standardization test and to flight planners, operations staff and airport operators.
