HAPD aircraft Uncertain Norm-Bounded Mathematical model
Provides a mathematical model for control design of a specific UAV, but is incremental as it applies existing modeling techniques to a new platform.
The paper develops an uncertain norm-bounded linear model for the HAPD UAV within a specific flight envelope (17-23 m/s, 300-700 m altitude). No concrete performance numbers are reported.
In this paper an uncertain norm-bounded mathematical model for the UAV High Altitude Performance Demonstrator (HAPD) designed by Italian Aerospace Research Center (CIRA) is carried out. The linear state space description aims to describe the non-linear aircraft dynamic inside the operating envelope characterized by the following bounds: true air speed between 17 m/s and 23 m/s and altitude from 300 m to 700 m.
