Mironova M.M., Kulifeev Yu.B. Simulation software package for controlling the regimes of horizontal flight of an unmanned aircraft

Abstract: The subject of the study is to optimize the management of flight speed and altitude of the aircraft, implementing a coordinated deflection of controls using special algorithmic software for flight control and navigation systems of automatic control. The authors solve the problem of creating a simulation software for controlling the regimes of horizontal flight of an unmanned aircraft, which allows to validate (to carry out a comprehensive study for a wide range of conditions, conditions and restrictions) control algorithms altitude and airspeed with the help of an integrated management system. The results are presented in relation to the adaptive control algorithm speed and altitude UAV aircraft type having versatility. The research methodology includes methods of mathematical modeling, management of complex systems, inverse problems of dynamics, system simulation, adaptive control, flight dynamics, aerodynamics. The main result of the study is a program complex of modeling management regimes of horizontal flight of an unmanned aircraft, which has been used to validated control algorithm level flight of an unmanned aircraft, providing an increase in the speed control loop speed and altitude, reducing fuel consumption, due to the desire of the current rate closer to the optimal value due to the withdrawal of the aircraft at the optimum altitude.
