TARGET TRACKING METHOD PERFORMED BY A DRONE, RELATED COMPUTER PROGRAM, ELECTRONIC SYSTEM AND DRONE

摘要

A target tracking method (34) using an on-board electronic target tracking system (14) within a drone (12), the method (34) comprising at least the determination (40) of a trajectory of movement of the drone (12), the trajectory comprising a plurality of successive orbits centered respectively on a plurality of successive positions (C) of the target (10), the radius of orbit being adapted to vary, from one orbit to another, according to at least one element belonging to the group comprising: at least one datum (50) associated with the drag performance of the drone (12), the current position of the target (10), a predetermined elevation angle ( ζ ) of the drone with respect to the target (10), the current altitude of the drone (12) relative to the target (10).
