Modelling of an experimental networked drone for evaluation of Diagnostic Stategies
Résumé
A helicopter-drone is presently in design phase in our laboratory, within the frame of a research project. The purpose of this drone is to serve as a benchmark and to be sufficiently open in order to test several control or diagnostic strategies, in a Networked Embedded Control Systems approach. The benchmark will comprise an embedded network on the drone itself, and a wireless network for communication with the ground station(s). A model of the drone is proposed in this paper. This model is composed of the model of the drone itself in Matlab-Simulink together with the model of the network in True-Time. Some results are proposed in the paper concerning the influence of network faults on the diagnostic.
