Smooth Three-Dimensional Route Planning for Fixed-Wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles With Double Continuous Curvature

This paper presents a smooth flight path planner for maneuvering in a 3D Euclidean space, which is based on two new space curves. The first one is called “Elementary Clothoid-based 3D Curve (ECb3D)”, which is built by concatenating two symmetric Clothoid-based 3D Curves (Cb3D)....
