AUTONOMOUS FLIGHT KITE PLANE SYSTEM AND KITE PLANE CONTROLLING DEVICE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accurately perform autonomous flight of a kite plane along a flight route by a simple control device or a control system.;SOLUTION: A flight control device 1001 calculates a steady throttle output value based on the time differential value of a target altitude at a target flight route, and meanwhile calculates an error between a target altitude and a present altitude at which the kite plane actually flights as an altitude error, and further calculates the time differential value of the altitude error. A throttle output correction value is calculated based on the altitude error and the time differential value of the altitude error. By correcting a steady throttle output value by the throttle output correction value, a throttle output value is calculated, and based on this value, throttle control of the kite plane 1001 is made.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
