This paper presents a method for trajectory generation with Bézier curves, by considering the wind field and dynamic constraints for small Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS). Atmospheric phenomena affect UAS trajectories, so the wind presence should be considered in order efficiently perform a mission. T…
This paper presents a new method for estimation and identification of shear wind and discrete gusts of a previously unknown wind field by using an Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS). Wind estimation and identification is key in energy-efficient trajectory planning and dynamic soaring applications. The r…
This paper proposes a method called Segmentation-adaptive Pseudospectral collocation to address the problem of safe trajectory generation in missions with cooperating multiple aerial vehicles. Pseudospectral collocation can generate optimized collision-free trajectories, but for multiple aerial vehi…
