| Abstract | This paper focuses on a critical component of the situational awareness (SA), the control of autonomous vertical flight for the coaxial rotor/ducted-fan helicopter (CRDFH). Autonomous vertical flight is a challenging but important task for CRDFHs to achieve high level of autonomy under adverse conditions. With the SA strategy, we proposed a neural flight control procedure to address the dynamics variation and performance requirement difference in initial and final stages of flight trajectory for a nontrivial CRDFH type model. This control strategy for chosen mini-helicopter model has been verified by simulation of take-off and hovering maneuvers using software package Simulink and demonstrated good performance for fast SA in realtime search-and-rescue operations. Key-Words: Coaxial rotor/ducted-fan helicopter, flight control, NARMA-L2 neurocontroller, simulation, situational awareness. |
