Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The field of flight guidance and control is integral to the continued advancement and safety of modern aerospace vehicles, including manned aircraft and UAVs. As the complexity of these systems increases, so does the need for sophisticated guidance and control strategies that ensure optimal performance and compliance with stringent safety standards. This Special Issue seeks to highlight pioneering research and innovative solutions in flight guidance and control. We invite contributions on topics including, but not limited to:
- Control design methods for UAVs, aerospace vehicles, and drones;
- Advanced guidance algorithms;
- Cooperative guidance;
- Trajectory/path planning;
- Trajectory optimization/optimal guidance and control;
- Autonomous flight control;
- Fault-tolerant/adaptive control;
- Learning-based flight guidance and control;
- Computational guidance and control for flight vehicles.
