Design of Control Laws and State Observers for Fixed-Wing Uavs: Simulation and Experimental Approaches

By Alejandro Enrique Dz Lopez, Arturo Tadeo Espinoza-Fraire, Jose Armando Saenz Esqueda, et al.

Design of Control Laws and State Observers for Fixed-Wing UAVs: Simulation and Experimental Approaches provides readers with modeling techniques, simulations, and results from real-time experiments using linear and nonlinear controllers and state observers. The book starts with an overview of the history of UAVs and the equations of motion applied to them. Following chapters analyze linear and nonlinear controllers, state observers, and the book concludes with a chapter discussing testbed development and experimental results, equipping readers with the knowledge they need to conduct their own stable UAV flights whether in simulation or real-time.
