Position and Attitude Tracking of MAV Quadrotor Using SMC-Based Adaptive PID Controller
A micro air vehicle (MAV) is physically lightweight, such that even a slight perturbation could affect its attitude and position tracking. To attain better autonomous flight system performance, MAVs require good control strategies to maintain their ...

Aeroacoustic optimization of MAV rotors
The more restrictive airspace regulations force drone manufacturers to take into account the noise emitted by the drone during the design phase, along with its aerodynamic performance to increase the flight time. A Non-Linear Vortex Lattice Method (NVLM),
