  • Patent number: 11427316
    Abstract: A bionic visual navigation control system for autonomous aerial refueling docking includes: a tanker/receiver bottom layer control module, a multi-wind disturbances hose-drogue stable control module, an enable and select module, a close-range bionic vision relative navigation module, and a receiver relative position precise control module. A bionic visual navigation control method for autonomous aerial refueling docking is also provided. The present invention aims at improving the reliability, anti-interference and accuracy of the close-range relative navigation in the autonomous air refueling docking stage, and designs a matching relative position accurate control method with control switch, thereby improving the accuracy of close-range navigation and control, thereby promoting the successful realization of probe-and-drogue autonomous aerial refueling and improving the autonomy of UAVs.

  • Publication number: 20190033893
    Abstract: A UAV autonomous swarm formation rotation control method based on a simulated migratory bird evolutionary snowdrift game includes steps of: Step 1: initializing; Step 2: determining flight mode based on a migratory bird evolutionary snowdrift game; Step 3: determining the leader and its position relative to corresponding wing UAV; Step 4: running UAV model; and Step 5: determining whether to end simulation. The present invention is to provide a distributed UAV autonomous swarm formation rotation control method, so as to improve robustness and adaptability of the UAV in autonomous swarm formation rotation, thus effectively improving long-range mission execution capability of the UAV.
