Towards Autonomous Autorotation Landing for Small Size Unmanned Helicopters

The consideration of safety issues in the operation of helicopters involves the capability to perform emergency descending maneuvers through the autorotation principle when the engine is no longer supplying power. When comparing manned and unmanned ...
Autonomous Shipboard Landing Algorithm for Unmanned Helicopters in Crosswind

This paper introduces an algorithm for the autonomous shipboard landing of unmanned helicopters in crosswind, using time-delay control. The proposed algorithm is composed of two parts: the controller, augmented with time-delay control, and the guidance ...
Aerodynamics and control of autonomous quadrotor helicopters in aggressive maneuvering
ICRA'09: Proceedings of the 2009 IEEE international conference on Robotics and Automation

Quadrotor helicopters have become increasingly important in recent years as platforms for both research and commercial unmanned aerial vehicle applications. This paper extends previous work on several important aerodynamic effects impacting quadrotor ...
