Path-Following Guidance for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle with Bounded Lateral Acceleration
Vinay Kathiriya, Saurabh Kumar, Shashi Ranjan Kumar
This paper addresses the three-dimensional path-following guidance problem for unmanned aerial vehicles under explicit actuator constraints. Unlike conventional approaches that ass…
Cooperative Nonlinear Guidance Strategies for Guaranteed Pursuit-Evasion
Saurabh Kumar, Shashi Ranjan Kumar, Abhinav Sinha
This paper investigates a pursuit-evasion problem involving three agents: a pursuer, an evader, and a defender. Cooperative guidance laws are developed for the evader-defender team…
Provably Safe Control for Constrained Nonlinear Systems with Bounded Input
Saurabh Kumar, Shashi Ranjan Kumar, Abhinav Sinha
In real-world control applications, actuator constraints and output constraints (specifically in tracking problems) are inherent and critical to ensuring safe and reliable operatio…
Three-dimensional Nonlinear Path-following Guidance with Bounded Input Constraints
Saurabh Kumar, Shashi Ranjan Kumar, Abhinav Sinha
In this paper, we consider the tracking of arbitrary curvilinear geometric paths in three-dimensional output spaces of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) without pre-specified timing…
Trajectory Tracking for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in 3D Spaces under Motion Constraints
Saurabh Kumar, Shashi Ranjan Kumar, Abhinav Sinha
This article presents a three-dimensional nonlinear trajectory tracking control strategy for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the presence of spatial constraints. As opposed to m…
