Abstract:
The aircraft landing phase, marking the finishing of a flight plane, is a critical yet dangerous aerial maneuver. Even though it might seem simple, predicting the complexities of performance during landing presents a big challenge due to the dynamic characteristics of the phase, interaction with piloting methods, as well as inherent uncertainties in aerodynamics. Landing is executed in close proximity to the ground at reduced airspeed, the landing phase entails an escalated safety risk. Notably, incidents and accidents, particularly overruns where aircraft fail to slow sufficiently on the runw

Abstract:
Landing is the most important stage of the Flight of UAV, the study of automatic landing of UAVs has important engineering significance. In this paper, the UAV landing trajectory is divided into approach phase, steep glide phase and flare phase; a cascade control structure controller of height tracking was applied and the landing control law was designed. The digital simulation was done in the MATLAB / simulink environment. The results of simulation indicated that UAV can track the designed landing trajectory very well under the control law of automatic landing and safe landing can be achieved

Abstract:
Nowadays, aerial vehicles (drones) are becoming more popular. Over the past few years, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have been used in various remote sensing applications. Every aerial vehicle is now either partially or completely automated. The tiniest type of aerial vehicle is the UAV. The widespread use of aerial drones requires numerous safe landing site detection techniques. The paper aims to review literature on techniques for automatic safe landing of aerial drone vehicles by detecting suitable landing sites, considering factors such as ground surfaces and using image processing metho

Abstract:
Fishing landings in Chile are inspected to control fisheries that are subject to catch quotas. The control process is not easy since the volumes extracted are large and the numbers of landings and artisan shipowners are high. Moreover, the number of inspectors is limited, and a non-automated method is utilized that normally requires months of training. In this work, we propose, design, and implement an automated fish landing control system. The system consists of a custom gate with a camera array and controlled illumination that performs automatic video acquisition once the fish landing starts

The paper presents the concept of a component of an aircraft’s automatic flight control system, controlling the airplane when in longitudinal motion (i.e., pitch angle, sink rate, airspeed channels) during automatic landing, from a final approach until a touchdown.

The first part exploits dedicated image-processing algorithms to identify the number of red and white PAPI lights appearing on an onboard video camera.

Abstract:
Deep space exploration has risen in interest among scientists in recent years, with soft landings being one of the most straightforward ways to acquire knowledge about the Moon. In general, landing mission success depends on the selection of landing zones, and there are currently few effective quantitative models that can be used to select suitable landing zones. When automatic landing zones are selected, the grid method used for data partitioning tends to miss potentially suitable landing sites between grids. Therefore, this study proposes a new engineering-constrained approach for landing zo

<p>The market for vertical takeoff and landing unmanned aerial vehicles, VTOL UAVs, is growing rapidly. To reciprocate the demand of VTOL UAVs in offshore applications, CybAero has developed a novel concept for landing on moving objects called MALLS, Mobile Automatic Launch and Landing Station. MALLS can tilt its helipad and is supposed to align to either the horizontal plane with an operator adjusted offset or to the helicopter skids. Doing so, eliminates the gyroscopic forces otherwise induced in the rotordisc as the helicopter is forced to change attitude when the skids align to the ground

Although the design technique has been used for a autoland system, the approach is general enough to be used in other control applications. The structure of a traditional flare cont

Classical (PID) and modern control (LQT, Sliding Mode) methods for autonomous navigation and landing in adverse weather conditions are implemented. Two different guidance systems are designed in order to navigate through waypoints during normal and/or emergency flight. The nonlinear Pioneer UAV model is used in controller development and simulations.
