Abstract

In this paper, a simple algorithm is proposed to estimate wind speed and direction which can significantly improve the landing performance of an unmanned parafoil. The proposed algorithm is applied to flight test data along with other known algorithms and the results are compared and discussed. The proposed algorithm shows comparable performance while it can still be applied to the parafoil under control.
