Abstract:In the working process of the tethered unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), there is interference from the tethered cable, which can easily lead to the instability of the UAV. To solve the above problems, a method based on the Lyapunov exponent is proposed to analyze the stability of tethered cables for tethered UAVs. The dynamics equation of the UAV platform is established using the Euler–Poincare equation. The tension formula of the tethered cable is derived from the catenary theory and the principle of micro-segm… Show more
