Towards an autonomous landing system in presence of uncertain obstacles in indoor environments


Abstract:

The landing task is fundamental to Micro air vehicles (MAVs) when attempting to land in an unpbkp_redictable environment (e.g., presence of static obstacles or moving obstacles). The MAV should immediately detect the environment through its sensors and decide its actions for landing. This paper addresses the problem of the autonomous landing approach of a commercial AR. Drone 2.0 in presence of uncertain obstacles in an indoor environment. A localization methodology to estimate the drone’s pose based on the sensor fusion techniques which fuses IMU and Poxyz signals is proposed. In addition, a vision-based approach to detect and estimate the velocity, position of the moving obstacle in the drone’s working environment is presented. To control the drone landing accurately, a cascade control based on an Accelerated Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (APSO) is designed. The simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the obtained model is appropriate for the measured data.
