FLIGHT NAVIGATION ELEMENTS AN UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE

Abstract

Background. This article discusses the problem of navigation and control of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). To ensure the effective performance of the flight task, it is proposed to take into account the calculations of the navigation elements of the flight of an unmanned aerial vehicle, the feature of the proposed method is the ability to evaluate the characteristics and parameters of elements that affect the trajectory and accuracy of flight. Various factors are taken into account, such as the aerodynamic properties of the UAV, environmental conditions, navigation and control systems. Materials and methods. The article presents mathematical models and algorithms for calculating optimal navigation elements, which allow to achieve the best efficiency of the flight task. The proposed approach differs from existing methods in the possibility of more accurate determination of the trajectory and maneuvers of the UAV. Results and conclusions. The results of the study can find practical application in the development of UAV control and navigation systems for various purposes, increasing their accuracy, reliability and efficiency of tasks. The presented methods can be used in civil and military aviation, as well as in other areas where unmanned aerial vehicles are used.
