Design and Control of a Variable Aerial Cable Towed System

Abstract: Aerial Cable Towed Systems (ACTS) are composed of several Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) connected to a payload by cables. Compared to towing objects from individual aerial vehicles, an ACTS has significant advantages such as heavier payload capacity, modularity, and full control of the payload pose. They are however generally large with limited ability to meet geometric constraints while avoiding collisions between UAVs. This paper presents the modelling, performance analysis, design, and a proposed controll… Show more

“…This wrench analysis is combined in [8] with a modified version of a controller developed for discretely reconfigurable CDPRs. The parallelism between ACTS and CDPR is even more pronounced in [30], where the MAVs of the transportation system are equipped with actuated winches.…”
