“…This review will examine the key work on relative navigation, drogue estimation and formation guidance, but, a more in-depth discussion can be found in [21]. Pioneering work at Georgia Tech [12,23] demonstrated the first vision-only formation flight, using line of sight (LOS) measurements to a leader, from a monocular camera.…”

“…Although the aircraft were manned, they performed the final stage of docking automatically, using a relative GPS/INS system and a separate vision system to observe the drogue. So far, this is the only program to have demonstrated autonomous physical connection using refueling apparatus [21].…”

“…Aerial refueling can greatly improve the ability of manned aircrafts and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) to execute remote and long endurance tasks [1][2][3][4]. Probe-drogue aerial refueling system (PDARS) has been widely concerned by the research institutions of various countries because of its flexibility and economy [5].…”

“…As an effective method for increasing the endurance and range of aircraft by refueling them in flight [3], UAV autonomous aerial refueling (AAR) has attracted an increasing interest over the last decades from both theoretical and practical aspects covering aircraft control, sensor systems, and their integration [4][5][6][7][8]. Generally, there are two refueling methods [3]: flying boom method and probe-drogue refueling (PDR) [9][10][11]. And the PDR is getting to be a universal refueling equipment due to its low cost and wide operational aspects [11].…”
