THE DEVELOPMENT OF MATHEMATICAL MODEL FOR INVESTIGATING THE ALGORITHMS OF ESTIMATION AND PREDICTION OF UAV ELECTROMECHANICAL ACTUATOR TECHNICAL STATE

Abstract

Russian development of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) is largely focused on objects of the "Mi-cro", "Mini", "Middle-", "Small-" and "Medium-" range class. A characteristic feature of these objects is the use of servoactuators (SA) in the primary control system with a passband of at least fdb = 0.7 Hz. Such SA are widely used in aircraft modeling, however, in the UAV field, their use is limited by the con-trol quality requirements, power and reliability. KBPA JSC has developed and manufactured a 400 kg average radius UAVs SA prototype. To assess technical requirements compliance, SA samples experi-mental studies were conducted. Based on the components design characteristics and tests results SA mathematical model has been formed in Simulink, which is supposed to be used to simulate the closedloop dynamics of the "UAV - control system - SA". M odel validation was carried out on the basis of the static and dynamic characteristics of the SA natural sample. Detailization of such model in the future will make it possible to introduce algorithms for SA early failure diagnosis, which are currently being developed at TsAGI and ICS RAS. The basis for such algorithms is the SA energy efficiency. The energy efficiency changing is a non-deterministic parameter that substantially depends on its functioning mode and the external influence factors and affects among other things the SA heat loss. Therefore, it seems appropriate to conduct a comprehensive analysis including the use of data mining algorithms. A special target property of the developed diagnostic system is its ability to determine the SA technical condition in non-deterministic modes.
