- UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE OFF-SITE LANDING SYSTEM

摘要

Fixed wing unmanned aerial vehicles and methods of operating them are provided. A fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle is a failure detection system configured to detect a failure in one or more of the plurality of components, communicatively coupled to the failure detection system, based on a failure in one or more of the plurality of components, but not limited thereto. A capability assessment system configured to determine the capability level of the fixed wing unmanned aerial vehicle, and a trajectory communicatively coupled to the failure detection system and capability assessment system, and configured to generate a landing trajectory of the fixed wing unmanned aerial vehicle based on the determined capability level of the fixed wing unmanned aerial vehicle Generation system, and if the determined capability level is below a predetermined threshold, the landing trajectory includes a stall maneuver configured to minimize the lateral energy of the fixed wing unmanned aerial vehicle.
