Testing and Improvement of a Ducted Fan Unmanned Aerial System
EF 2018-19 · 2018-12-03
Résumé
The Firm has developed a Ducted Fan Unmanned Aerial System with a docking station for fully autonomous operations. To ensure reliable operations the system will need to be tested in persistent operations in different conditions. This includes persistent conduction of cycles of UAV deployment, hovering, recovery and replenishment in those conditions. To identify issues and improve the system fast, the test will be conducted at first indoors and to a later state outdoors. This allows to distinguish between environmental influences and allows faster progress. To be able to use the UAS for a wider range of application AS Works will add the capability to transition from hover flight into horizontal flight and back to the UAV.

Description (French)
L’entreprise a développé un système aérien sans pilote à ventilateur canalisé avec une station d’accueil pour des opérations totalement autonomes. Pour garantir des opérations fiables, le système devra être testé dans des opérations persistantes dans différentes conditions. Cela inclut la conduction persistante des cycles de déploiement, de vol stationnaire, de récupération et de réapprovisionnement d’UAV dans ces conditions. Pour identifier les problèmes et améliorer rapidement le système, le test sera d'abord effectué à l'intérieur, puis à l'extérieur. Cela permet de distinguer les influences environnementales et permet des progrès plus rapides. Pour pouvoir utiliser le système UAS dans une gamme d'applications plus étendue, AS Works ajoutera la possibilité de passer du vol stationnaire au vol horizontal puis de revenir à l’UAV.
