Mission-Oriented 3D Path Planning for High-Altitude Long-Endurance Solar-Powered UAVs With Optimal Energy Management

The conversion efficiency of solar energy and the capacity of energy storage batteries are the key technologies limiting the development of solar-powered aircraft. In this paper, a mission-oriented design for the 3-dimensional (3D) path planning of solar-powered unmanned aerial vehicles (SP-UAVs) us...
