UAV Optimal Guidance in Wind Fields Using ZEM/ZEV with Generalized Performance Index
Ely C. de Paiva, Bruno Carvalho, Luis Rodrigues
This paper presents an optimal guidance approach for a UAV navigation between two given points in 3D considering the wind influence. The proposed cost function to be minimized invo…

Hybrid Model-Based and Data-Driven Wind Velocity Estimator for an Autonomous Robotic Airship
Apolo Silva Marton, André Ricardo Fioravanti, José Raul Azinheira +1
In the context of autonomous airships, several works in control and guidance use wind velocity to design a control law. However, in general, this information is not directly measur…
