Tran, Huu-Khoa; Chiou, Juing -Shian; Peng, Shou-Tao – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2016
In this paper, the feasibility of a Genetic Algorithm Optimization (GAO) education software based Fuzzy Logic Controller (GAO-FLC) for simulating the flight motion control of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is designed. The generated flight trajectories integrate the optimized Scaling Factors (SF) fuzzy controller gains by using GAO algorithm. The…
