Finite-Time Fuzzy Adaptive Constrained Tracking Control for Hypersonic Flight Vehicles with Singularity-Free Switching

This article proposes a fuzzy adaptive design solving the finite-time constrained tracking for hypersonic flight vehicles (HFVs). Actuator dynamics and asymmetric time-varying constraints are considered when solving this problem. The main features of the proposed design lie in 1) introducing a novel piecewise but differentiable switching...

Embedding Adaptive Features in the ArduPilot Control Architecture for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

The operation of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is often subject to state-dependent alterations and unstructured uncertainty factors, such as unmodelled dynamics, environmental weather disturbances, aerodynamics gradients, or changes in inertia and mass due to payloads. While a large number of autopilot solutions have been proposed to operate...
