Combined adaptive controller for UAV guidance

Combined adaptive control law for an autopilot of the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) homing guidance system is proposed. The adaptation algorithm provides prescribed attitude motion dynamics for different flight conditions. Simulation results verify efficiency of the combined adaptive controller in the case of significant uncertainty of the UAV parameters and time dependence of the guidance loop.
