“…Determining the components of direction cosine matrices enables to determine angles of the helmet's position against the aircraft cockpit (as for the azimuth and elevation), in accordance with the generally known dependencies, e.g. [1,8,10]. For conclusions stemming from the conducted simulation tests, we specified an outline of simulation research that allowed determining the error of the helmetmounted cueing system, using such a method.…”

The following paper presents a method of determining the angular position of the pilot's helmet based on the measurement of magnetic field components, artificially generated on board the aircraft (similarly to the helmetmounted cueing systems of the F-16 aircraft). We presented a mathematical model, which describes determining of the angular position of the pilot's helmet, based on the measurement of the magnetic field components in various moments of powering orthogonally fixed magnetic coils. We also defined modelling capabilities of the helmet-mounted cueing system, which uses the magnetic method to determine the angular position of the pilot's helmet. It has been shown that the direction cosine matrix can be used for determining the angular position of the pilot's helmet, specified based on the matrix formed from the magnetic field components in various moments of powering orthogonal magnetic coils. The paper ends with an outline of simulation tests, which enable to identify the errors of the system, using such a method.

“…Thus, the engineer's primary goal is to shape them properly in the design and manufacturing process, and to use them properly during operation. Flight stabilization systems, traction autopilots, flight management systems and modern, integrated on-board measurement systems support the pilot, and even in certain phases of the flight they are able to completely replace it in pilot-navigation functions (Adamski et al, 2014;Fresconi, 2012).…”

The article is an independent work containing the author’s ingenious research methodology and the model of the control system of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles. Furthermore a unique and world first mathematical model of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle was developed, as well as a simulation program which enabled to investigate the control system of any Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in the tilt duct pitch (altitude), bank (direction), deviation and velocity, depending upon the variable values of the steering coefficient, reinforcement coefficient and the derivative constant. The research program was written in the language of the C++ as the MFC class, on the MS Visual Studio 2010 platform. The main issue resolved in the article is the pioneering research of the process of control during manual and semi-automatic guidance of the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, with a jet propulsion system to the coordinates of preset points of the flight route. Modelling of the flight control system takes into account: the logical network of operations of the simulation program, the pilot-operator model, the set motion and control deviations as well as the flight control laws. In addition, modeling of the control system takes into account the drive model, engine dynamics, engine thrust, the model of steering actuators and the model of external loads. In contrast, the external load model takes into account the external forces acting on the unmanned aircraft, including gravitational forces and moments, aerodynamic forces and moments, aerodynamic drag, aerodynamic lateral forces, aerodynamic lift forces, aerodynamic heeling moment, mechanism of local angle of attack from damping torque and forces and moments from the engine.

“…The specific nature of exploiting UAVs is reflected, among others, in the operator's lack of 'feeling' of the piloted aircraft or a helicopter, to various types of impact, including disturbances in the operation of the propulsion system, during a flight. The on-board guidance system consists of target tracking system called the coordinator, the conversion of the integrated navigation system and control system, executive control and controlled object (Adamski and Vogt et al 2014). Therefore, it is vital to become acquainted, as comprehensively as possible, with specific conditions of exploitation of this type of vehicles as well as in-flight problems.…”

One of the most important tasks in the phase of making a design of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is to properly select its propulsion system. The primary initial data should include application and requirements for a UAV. The type of a propulsion system is directly linked with tasks and aims which the designed unit will execute. Moreover, it is necessary to take into account the required payload, essential for carrying equipment, including munitions. The type of propulsion denotes selecting such a system, among a wide range of the available ones, which allows the best exploitation of the airframe characteristics as well as generating proper thrust in order to comply with all the assumed requirements. This study analyses various propulsion systems currently used in UAVs, paying particular attention to their characteristics which are essential to conduct a specific mission, including geological and photogrammetric research missions. The most common task of UAVs is reconnaissance, and its most significant parameters are indurance, speed, flight altitude and payload taken on board. All of these are largely linked to the type of used propulsion. In conclusion, the above analysis indicates that a future propulsion system for an UAV should be designed on the basis of a rotary piston combustion engine or a flat engine (boxer type). It should be digitally controlled, so that the operator receives information about the engine's working parameters, in real time.
