Model Predictive Control of a Parafoil System via the Koopman Operator

Abstract

AbstractExisting predictive control of parafoils is based on the local linearization of the dynamic system around its equilibrium state, which fails to capture global nonlinear characteristics. To address this limitation, we propose a novel data-driven ...Practical ApplicationsThis study offers a novel control framework for parafoil systems, which are widely used in precision airdrop missions, drone delivery, and aerial recovery operations. Traditional control methods often struggle to handle the complex ...
