Abstract
This work studies the standoff tracking problem to drive an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to slide on a desired circle over a moving target at a constant height. We propose a novel Lyapunov guidance vector (LGV) field with tunable convergence rates for the UAV’s trajectory planning and a deep neural network (DNN)-based model predictive control (MPC) scheme to track the reference trajectory. Then, we show how to collect samples for training the DNN offline and design an integral module (IM) to refine the tracking performance of our DNN-based MPC. Moreover, the hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation with a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) at 200 MHz demonstrates that our method is a valid alternative to embedded implementations of MPC for addressing complex systems and applications which is impossible for directly solving the MPC optimization problems.
