Small Unmanned Aircraft - Theory and Practice

Zusatztext "It is very nicely written with a presentation style that engineers in industry will appreciate. Most of the mathematics involved is very straightforward and the results are presented in a very clear manner. This is a text that should be very useful to those working on unmanned aerial vehicles and may even be of interest to those working on unmanned land or marine vehicles." Informationen zum Autor Randal W. Beard & Timothy W. McLain Klappentext "This book presents a unique and broad introduction to the necessary background, tools, and methods to design guidance, navigation, and control systems for unmanned air vehicles. Written with confidence and authority by leading researchers in the field, this effectively organized book provides an excellent reference for all those interested in this subject." --Emilio Frazzoli, Massachusetts Institute of Technology "Presenting aircraft dynamics to nonaerospace students, this book provides a clear description and explanation for the design of navigation, guidance, and control algorithms for small to miniature unmanned aircraft systems." --Eric W. Frew, University of Colorado, Boulder Zusammenfassung Provides key concepts and technologies underlying the dynamics, control, and guidance of fixed-wing unmanned aircraft, and enables students with an introductory-level background in controls or robotics to enter this important area. This title explores the essential underlying physics and sensors of unmanned air vehicles problems. Inhaltsverzeichnis 19087915
