Simulation And Control Of A Quadrotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, Michael David Schmidt
Simulation And Control Of A Quadrotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, Michael David Schmidt
University of Kentucky Master's Theses
The ANGEL project (Aerial Network Guided Electronic Lookout) takes a systems engineering approach to the design, development, testing and implementation of a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle. Many current research endeavors into the field of quadrotors for use as unmanned vehicles do not utilize the broad systems approach to design and implementation. These other projects use pre-fabricated quadrotor platforms and a series of external sensors in a mock environment that is unfeasible for real world use. The ANGEL system was designed specifically for use in a combat theater where robustness and ease of control are paramount. A complete simulation model of …
