Intelligent Control Method for Flanking Flight of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
Main Article Content
Abstract
The angle control during the flight of UAV is the most important factor which affects its stability and safety. Since the traditional PID control method is difficult to automatically adjust the control parameters, a particle swarm optimization algorithm based on traditional PID control (PSO-PID), is proposed to construct a mathematical model of the flanking flight of the UAV. Based on the full analysis of the PID control principle, the UAV’s flanking flight controller based on PID control is constructed. The particle swarm optimization algorithm is introduced to optimize the PID parameters. The simulation model is built in MATLAB to investigate the position and altitude angle change of the UAV’s flank and compare it with the traditional PID control method. The experimental results show that the PSO-PID control strategy has a good control effect, which enables UAV’s flanking flight to reach the specified position more quickly and accurately than traditional PID controller alone.
