Fuzzy Adaptive Control for a UAV

In this paper a combination of Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) and Model Reference Adaptive Control (MRAC) will be developed to stabilize and control a fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The control must be able to direct the airplane towards different waypoints while at the same time maintaining the UAV stable. Also, the control should be transferable to similar UAV models with little to no change to the algorithm.
