System Identification and Handling Quality Analysis of a UAV from Flight Test Data

System identification using flight test data Şimşek, Orkun; Tekinalp, Ozan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2014) In this study, a linear model of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is developed by using frequency domain system identification methods. The data used in the identification methods are obtained by performing flight tests. To obtain appropriate flight test data for identification process, flight test maneuvers are designed. These flight test data are used in two main frequency domain system identification methods, namely, transfer function modeling and state space modeling. The linear models obtained by using...
System identification and control of a fixed wing aircraft by using flight data obtained from x-plane flight simulator Çetin, Ender; Kutay, Ali Türker; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2018) In this thesis, a linear state-space model of an aircraft is obtained by applying numerical integration system identification method. Flight test data used in the system identification is obtained by using X-Plane flight simulation program. In X-Plane Flight Simulator, the flight tests are made by using different excitations on the control surfaces. The linear models obtained by system identification are verified by applying the inputs to the linear model and then the outputs are compared with the X-Plane f...
System Identification and Controller Development for a Small Turbojet Engine Ekinci, Sinan; Kutay, Ali Türker; Uzol, Oğuz; Yiğittürk, Melih (null; 2011-09-16) This paper presents the results of a system identification and controller development study for a small generic turbojet engine. Custom Full Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC) system hardware and embedded software are designed and implemented on the engine. The system also controls the automatic start-up sequence for the engine to ensure a safe and guaranteed ignition under all-weather conditions as well as safe acceleration until the engine reaches the idle speed. The shut-down sequence is also contr...
System design and control framework for an autonomous mobile robot application on predefined ferromagnetic surfaces Fettahlioglu, M; Ersak, Aydın (2000-01-01) Maintenance tasks of ferromagnetic. surfaces present a suitable field for robotic applications. A system and controller software design satisfying the system requirements of an autonomous robotic system moving on a ferromagnetic surface accomplishing several tasks such as crack detection, welding, painting and emergency recovery actions is presented. The controller software developed here is a hierarchical control system based on the RCS Reference Model Architecture. The software shell and selected develope...
