Some Challenging Aspects of Optimal Power Management of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Modular Hybrid Propulsion Systems

An optimal control framework has been developed to assess the operation of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) powered by a modular hybrid propulsion system (MHPS). The framework is used to assess the effects of MHPS power hybridization level and energy hybridization mass ratio on the UAV performance f...
