Abstract |
The main aim of the Xpider project is to analyse,
design and develop a low‐cost VTOL (Vertical Take Off and
Landing) UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) platform in order
to provide a common architectural model for both
embedded software and GCS (Ground Control Station)
software and communications system. This architectural
model should be adaptable to any other hardware platforms
or sensors. Some of the key points of the project were, on the
one hand, the stabilization process using low‐cost sensors
and all the associated issues with low quality instruments,
on the other hand the interface between the stabilization
controller and the navigation controller, not forgetting the
secure communication protocols. Additionally, as a side
effect of the stabilization process analysis, a new
metaheuristic optimization search algorithm has been
developed to be used in PID (Proportional Integral
Derivative) controllercalibration tuning and has been
successfully applied in the stabilization controller. |
