1. Besides traditional navigation topics
of performance requirements (accuracy,
integrity, availability and continuity) and
GNSS/INS technologies, UAS specific
low altitude flight in cluttered areas also
requires relying on vision sensors,
LiDARs, RADARs, and map matching.
The related techniques will also be
covered
2. Unlike conventional flight control
course the focus here will be higher level
guidance and planning approaches and
algorithms applicable to other
autonomous systems
3. It is recommended that with industry
collaboration students shall work on a
real world avionics project. For UAS
stream it can be a UAS oriented project.
