  • Abstract
    This paper addresses the path following problem for an autonomous parafoil-payload system. The actuated dynamics of the system is first detailed. Local exponential stability of an input-output feedback linearizing control is proved, achieving a stable line following in the XY plane by using only lateral directional control input.
