“…If assume that the system is near the hover state, the thrust force U 1 has to be equal to the gravitational force m c g. In this case, the component U 1 /m can be replaced by the gravitational acceleration g [18,19]. Also, the components of the resistance forces R x and R y can be ignored near hover state.…”

The paper presents a hardware/software architecture for the study of algorithms for controlling an unmanned aerial vehicle-type quadcopter in the presence of wind loads; an algorithm for the stabilization of the position of the center of mass of the quadcopter has been implemented and tested on an experimental model. The purpose of the presented hardware/software architecture is a study of the UAV control system parameters influence on the accuracy of the positioning of the vehicle in laboratory conditions under the influence of wind loads, as well as the movement of the vehicle along the specified points of the trajectory based on inertial sensors. The article discusses about the necessary hardware and software elements for reaching the stabilization of the position of the quadcopter in the hover mode based on data obtained from sensors. As the result of the study, the theoretical and experimental data are compared and the permissible range of the positioning error of the device is determined.

Pesawat model jenis glider merupakan pesawat model yang mampu terbang dangan kecepatan rendah dan memiliki efisiensi tinggi dalam penggunaan sumber daya tenaga, sehingga banyak digunakan untuk misi pemantauan. Keterbatasan utama misi pemantauan menggunakan pesawat glider adalah jarak pandang pilot. Untuk mengatasi kemapuan jarak pandang pilot yang terbatas dan meningkatkan luas area pemantauan, pesawat harus dapat terbang secara mandiri atau autonomous. Pesawat yang terbang secara autonomous dikenal sebagai Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). Penerapan sistem autonomous pada pesawat model jenis glider dilakukan dengan mengimplementasikan perangkat autonomous berupa flight controller, GPS, software GCS, dan telemetri. Perangkat autonomous diimplemantasikan pada pesawat model solfix yang disesuaikan terhadap spesifikasi pesawat. Flight controller yang digunakan adalah Arduflyer 1.5 dengan metode pemberian parameter atur yang dilakukan dengan pendekatan eksperimen uji terbang. Waypoint uji terbang berbentuk persegi panjang dengan lebar 90 m dan panjang 100 m. Nilai parameter atur diperoleh dari observasi yang dilakukan pada pergerakan pesawat ketika automode hingga mampu terbang mengikuti waypoint yang telah ditentukan. Pesawat model solfix yang mampu terbang secara autonomous dengan stabil melewati waypoint yang ditentukan dengan perameter atur: RLL2SRV_P=1

“…A common leisure application for UAV swarms is the frequently witnessed light shows that utilize drones as a green alternative to fireworks. As the number of potential applications of Swarm UAV increases, a significant effort in developing efficient control systems to aid in maneuvering multiple UAVs, while requiring the user to remotely control at most a single drone becomes more and more necessary [6][7][8][9][10]. A critical factor in the control system for swarm implementation is its localization system.…”

Swarming is a rapidly growing idea that is being implemented in UAV applications. Its effectiveness and efficiency in finding solutions or executing the desired task served as the main motivation for this study. Localization techniques are vital for swarm implementation and deployment since it one of the main determining factors in its performance. Vision systems have been widely used for localization; however, it may be costly as it requires multiple appropriate cameras. Another localization technique, which is explored in this research, is radio localization. This localization employs Ultrawide-Band radios to communicate with each other to return a target’s position with respect to several reference points. The study presents a new collaborative UAV implementation deployed using radio localized systems for harsh or unknown environments. The study used the Loco Positioning System operating on the Time Difference of Arrival protocol to maneuver two UAVs in a workspace. The study determined how well the system can execute the desired flight path and the performance of the system in keeping the set distance between UAVs to avoid possible collisions. Results of the study showed that the proposed implementation was successful in maneuvering the UAVs flying 0.3 m apart.
