Simulation of helicopter boundary maneuvers of obstacle avoidance with predicted control function

Paper presents a simplified method of a simulation of a helicopter controlled flight applied in a program defining an execution of two versions of an obstacle avoidance maneuver, a vertical jump and a horizontal S-turn. Considering the operational limitations of a helicopter, the control function required for maneuver is determined in an iteration process. The flight path for an avoidance maneuver is tailored to pass within the limits of a tolerance strip.
