Abstract :
This paper addresses soft landing of miniature helicopter issue and suggests an optimal strategy with appropriate design parameters for a typical soft landing. The time-varying gains and time-varying quadratic performance index LQ control for autonomous soft landing of miniature helicopter examines and simulate. Simulation results have proved that the designed controller is suitable.
