This paper details our investigation of a battery-free fixed-wing UAV, built from cost-effective off-the-shelf components, that takes off, remains airborne, and lands safely
The proposed algorithm can independently plan the flight path of a solar-powered UAV according to the takeoff time of solar-powered UAVs and combine it with the local solar
By harnessing solar power, they offer compelling advantages, including greatly prolonged flight endurance, reduced reliance on fossil fuels, and cost-effectiveness. Capable of reaching
Solar-powered unmanned aerial vehicles (SUAVs) are likely to become dominant in the near future. They have the advantage of low cost and safe operation features that
Tracking (MPPT) Algorithm must be mounted between the solar cells and battery to extract the largest amount of power from the photovoltaic (PV) devices during the flight.
Solar-powered unmanned aerial vehicles (SUAVs) are likely to become dominant in the near future. They have the advantage of low cost
This paper comprehensively reviews renewable power systems for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), including batteries, fuel cells, solar photovoltaic cells, and hybrid
The proposed algorithm can independently plan the flight path of a solar-powered UAV according to the takeoff time of solar-powered UAVs and combine it with the local solar
In this context, we propose a solar-powered hy- brid MAV conguration, named ''Solar Swifter'' that combines the performance of a quadcopter, allowing vertical take-off and landing (VTOL), with
In this project, we propose to investigate the development of a battery-free UAV that can survive in the air and sustain long-term missions by harvesting solar energy, eliminating the need for...
The project aims to modify a 2-metre wingspan remote-controlled (RC) UAV available in the consumer market to be powered by a combination of solar and battery-stored power.
Solar UAVs, also known as solar drones, represent an unprecedented innovation in unmanned aerial vehicle technology. These
