Abstract

The scheme and structure of lateral deviation control for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) taxiing, and the control law design method are studied. The scheme and structure are put forward, which employed combined lateral deviation control of main-wheel differential brake and rudder. A universal nonlinear mathematic model of UAV taxiing is deduced, which considers the characteristics of undercarriages, brakes and runway. The desired performance of lateral deviation control is expressed by reference model in frequency domain. The control law design of lateral deviation control by the genetic-algorithms-based optimization procedure is accomplished, ensuring the performance of lateral deviation control approaching to that of the reference model. The illustration for X-UAV verifies the validity of the scheme and structure of lateral deviation control, and shows the efficiency of the design procedure of control law.
