Variance Constrained Vibration Control of Morphing Tactical Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (TUAVs)

Abstract

In this study, using dynamic model of passive and active morphing featured Tactical Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (TUAV) calledwhich is produced in Erciyes University, Faculty of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Model Aircraft Laboratory, under theTUBITAK ARDEB 1001 program and designing Output Constrained Variance Controller for aircraft tracking the desiredtrajectory achieved with minimal vibration and minimum energy consumption. For this purpose, using MATLAB, in thesimulation environment, studies have been performed and closed loop responses have been obtained. Longitudinal motion is in primary interest, desired output is pitching angle of TUAV, and desired input is elevator angle.
