摘要:

小型固定翼无人机(UAVs)在林业、消防等低空经济领域已广泛应用,其任务执行常需依赖可靠的自主着陆能力。尽管着陆过程中无人机的位姿模态变化具有重复性,但受低空风扰及初始状态随机偏移影响,实际着陆轨迹易出现轨迹长度波动并威胁着陆安全。针对此问题,提出一种基于历史轨迹驱动的迭代学习控制(ILC)方案。该方案在迭代维度上,利用历史轨迹数据优化期望着陆轨迹,间接降低跟踪误差,既兼容现有飞控框架又避免频繁调参;在时间维度上,采用动态时间规整(DTW)算法对多架次历史轨迹进行非线性对齐,突破了传统迭代学习要求轨迹长度严格一致的约束,并确保了迭代收敛性。仿真验证结果表明,相较于传统自动驾驶仪,该方案使着陆轨迹的横侧向和纵向跟踪误差均降低50%以上,有效提升了自主着陆的成功率与安全性。

Abstract:

Small fixed-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have been widely adopted in low-altitude economic sectors such as forestry and firefighting, where reliable autonomous landing capabilities are essential for mission execution. Although the positional and attitude modal changes of UAVs during landing exhibit repetitive patterns, low-altitude wind disturbances and random initial state deviations frequently cause fluctuations in trajectory length, compromising landing safety. To address this issue, this paper proposes a historical-trajectory-driven Iterative Learning Control (ILC) scheme. At the iterative dimension, the scheme optimizes the desired landing trajectory by leveraging historical trajectory data, indirectly reducing tracking errors while maintaining compatibility with existing flight control frameworks and avoiding frequent parameter adjustments. At the temporal dimension, the Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) algorithm is employed to nonlinearly align multi-sortie historical trajectories across time and space. This approach overcomes the traditional iterative learning constraint requiring strictly identical desired trajectories while ensuring iterative convergence. Simulation results demonstrate that, compared to conventional autopilots, this scheme reduces lateral and longitudinal tracking errors in landing trajectories by over 50%, significantly enhancing the success rate and safety of autonomous landings.
