Nonlinear Model Predictive Control for Trajectory Tracking of Differentially Flat Fixed-Wing Aerial Systems
Nishanth Bobbili, Pratyaksh Rao, Luca Morando +2
Planning and control of fixed-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are challenging due to nonlinear dynamics, aerodynamic limits, and environmental disturbances. Differential flatn…

Wind-Aware Optimal Trajectory Planning for Efficient Gliding of Fixed-Wing Aerial Systems
Luca Morando, Nishanth Bobbili, Giuseppe Loianno
Gliding offers small fixed-wing UAVs extended endurance and silent operation but requires accurate energy management, especially under wind disturbances and obstacle constraints. T…
