  1. 1. Autonomous Landing of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle on an Unmanned Ground Vehicle using Model Predictive Control

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Emil Boström; Erik Börjesson; [2022]
    Keywords : Model predictive control; MPC; Unmanned aerial vehicle; UAV; Unmanned ground vehicle; UGV; Path planning; Vehicle dynamics; Autonomous systems; Autonomous landing; Quadcopter; Gazebo; ROS;

    Abstract : The research on autonomous vehicles, and more specifically cooperation between autonomous vehicles, has become a prominent research field during the last cou- ple of decades. One example is the combination of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) together with an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV). READ MORE

  2. 2. Dataset Generation in a Simulated Environment Using Real Flight Data for Reliable Runway Detection Capabilities

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Emil Tagebrand; Emil Gustafsson Ek; [2021]
    Keywords : Neural Network; Convolutional Neural Network; CNN; Runway Detection; Landing Scenarios; Dataset Generation; Dataset; Dataset Augmentation; Object Detection; Aviation; ADS-B; Flight Data; Reliable Runway Detection; Simulated Environments; Automatic Annotation; Dataset Variation; Dataset Analysis;

    Abstract : Implementing object detection methods for runway detection during landing approaches is limited in the safety-critical aircraft domain. This limitation is due to the difficulty that comes with verification of the design and the ability to understand how the object detection behaves during operation. READ MORE
