Path Following and Obstacle Avoidance for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Using a Virtual-Force-Based Guidance Law

This paper presents a virtual-force-based guidance law (VFGL) for path following and obstacle avoidance in unmanned aerial vehicles. First, a virtual spring force and a virtual drag force are designed for straight-line following; then, the dynamic of the cross-track-error is equivalent to a spring m...
