Low-Cost Sensors State Estimation Algorithm for a Small Hand-Launched Solar-Powered UAV

In order to reduce the cost of the flight controller and improve the control accuracy of solar-powered unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), three state estimation algorithms based on the extended Kalman filter (EKF) with different structures are proposed: Three-stage series, full-state direct and indirect...
