Written by an expert with more than 30 years of experience,
Guidance of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles contains new analytical
results, taken from the author's research, which can be used for
analysis and design of unmanned aerial vehicles guidance and
control systems. This book progresses from a clear elucidation of
guidance laws and unmanned aerial vehicle dynamics to the modeling
of their guidance and control systems. Special attention is paid to
guidance of autonomous UAVs, which differs from traditional missile
guidance. The author explains UAV applications, contrasting them to
a missile's limited ability (or inability) to control axial
acceleration. The discussion of guidance laws for UAVs presents a
generalization of missile guidance laws developed by the author.
The computational algorithms behind these laws are tested in three
applications-for the surveillance problem, the refueling problem,
and for the motion control of a swarm of UAVs. The procedure of
choosing and testing the guidance laws is also considered in an
example of future generation of airborne interceptors launched from
UAVs. The author provides an innovative presentation of the
theoretical aspects of unmanned aerial vehicles' guidance that
cannot be found in any other book. It presents new ideas that, once
crystallized, can be implemented in the new generation of unmanned
aerial systems.
