Abstract:

The article deals with the problems of implementing control systems for small unmanned aerial vehicles. The disadvantages of existing algorithms for stabilizing the helicopter in space are noted. A new algorithm for stabilizing the vertical channel of an unmanned aerial vehicle of a helicopter type, based on the use of a neural network approximation of the nonlinear dynamics of a helicopter, is proposed. The advantage of the proposed approach is that there is no need for a priori knowledge of the dynamic properties of an aircraft, which, as a rule, are not reliably known in the case of small unmanned aerial vehicles of a helicopter type. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ https://doi.org/10.24411/2541-9269-2020-00002
