Flight Planet for low Altitude Photography and
Digital Camera).
2. Attitude, Heading and Reference System Position
(AHPRS): this is the Main reference input for
autonomous autopilot System. AHPRS the outputs
Euler Angles (Roll, pitch and yaw), true North
Absolute heading and position (Latitude, longitude
and Altitude).
3. Autopilot System: this is the Main Controller of
the airframe. It consists of Main Part Two, the low
level Control System that Governs the Pose /
Attitude of the Aircraft based on the Objective
trajectories. The Second Parts is the waypoint
Sequencer. Location determined which this Part the
airframe should Go (Latitude, longitude and
Altitude), and thus Determine the trajectories input
the Control System.
4. Digital Camera Payload Management System and
Automatic Flight Planner: The Flight Planner
Component Will Make First Automatic waypoint
(longitude, Altitude, and Altitude) that Will
optimally Covers the Area of interest to be
photographed. Systems are inputs to this Boundary
of the Area (longitude and Altitude), scale of the
desired aerial Photo Vertical and horizontal-Overlap
of each segment Photo, then the System Will
Automatically determined the Altitude and
Automatic sequencing of Digital Camera Shutter
release. The Digital Camera Payload Management
Command Will simply release the Shutter Sequence
and Exact Logging the time, Oerientation and
position of the Shutter release (usually recognize as
metadata, this information is needed for Post
Processing and Automatic Rapid Mosaicking).
5. Ground Station Software: Will this Component
Enable the operator to Plan and Monitor the
Autonomous Unmanned Mission Execution the
Aerial Vehicle, as well as reconfiguring the
Mission during Execution. Monitoring is done the
in Real time because a long Range High speed Data
modem is used to transmit and receive Mission
parameter between UAV and Ground Station.
6. Photo Indexer Software: Software Will Enable this
quick View of the Relative position of each Photo
taken during Flight. The Main Objective is to
examine the coverage and Photo blank spot, so
another Flight to Cover the blank spot Can be
decided while still on Location. Ultimately this
Software Will Help the Automosaicking Process.
7. Final Integration: these steps are taken when all
supporting components of the UAV are completely
developed.
Development of Post Processing Software
1. Automatic Photo Mosaicking: Will this Component
Automatically combined the aerial photographs that
Covers Small Area along with the metadata
(longitude, Latitude and Altitude of the Digital
Camera) Into Large single aerial photographs that
larger Covers Area.
2. Photo based aerial Agriculture Information
System: this is the Tools that Will be used by the
Farmers to Make Analysis to the aerial photograph
and Support About Making the decision Crop the
field. Remote Sensing and Geographic Information
System Concepts are involved in this System along
with good Precision Agriculture Practices.
Overall System Testing: this steps is conducted after the
Unmanned Aerial System and Post Processing are
completely developed. Objective is to Make the positive
Feedback to the overall Research and Development and to
publicize the System to the potential Users: the Farmers.
Not all steps have been completed on this Research. This
Paper only emphasize the Side of this Instrumentation
Research. The airframe for this specific purpose Will be
developed after the Instrumentation have been completed.
The Post Processing Software is also in ongoing
Development.
4 Instrumentation of UAV for Rapid Aerial Photo
System
4.1 Attitude, Heading and Position Reference System
(AHPRS)
AHPRS Will be used. Main as reference for autopilot System
as well as for Digital Camera Payload Management System.
4.1.1 Attitude Representation
In Order to Control an aerial Platform correctly, one of the
input needed by the autopilot Control System is Attitude.
Attitude is usually represented by 3 rotations. of the aerial
Platform. These rotations are roll, pitch and yaw. There are
several different representations used rotations. Among
them are the Euler Angle, cbn Matrix and the quaternion
representation Angle. The Euler Angle (Roll phi, theta pitch and
yaw Ψ) is very intuitive and widely used in Aerospace field.
But this representation suffers Singularity near 90 Degree of
pitch Angle. Cbn or direction cosine Matrix Matrix is a 3x3
Matrix that represent sequential Rotation of Roll, pitch and
yaw. This representation does not suffer from Singularity, but
it's not intuitive and uses 9 values to represent Attitude. Here
is the cbn representation

Figure 2: Roll, pitch and yaw
The quaternion representation Four uses for variables
instead of Rotation Three. Here is the quaternion
representation
E = [e0 E1 E2 e3] T (2)
e0 = cos (F / 2)
E1 = Ax Sin (F / 2)
E2 = Ay Sin (F / 2)
e3 = Az Sin (F /. 2)
where
A = UNIT vector along axis of Rotation
F = total Rotation Angle
Attitude To measure the approach that there 2 Can be used.
The First is inertial mechanization which uses discrete time
integration over Rotation rate measurement. In this approach
the Attitude determination depends not only to the Most
current measurement but also depends on the previous
Attitude Value. Second is the Attitude Absolute measurement
which the Attitude Can Compute based only on the Most
current measurement.
4.1.2 Body Rotation first to rate / Inertial
Mechanization
In this approach the Body Attitude is using Updated Rotation
rate. The Body Rotation rate is usually represented using a [P
QR] T vector. Each of the Value in the Body Rotation rate
vector represents Rotation rate in the x, Y and Z axis in the
local coordinate Frame of the aerial Platform (Body Frame).
The [pqr] T vector is measured using 3 Gyroscopes on each
of the. x, y and z axis in the body frame. Attitude each
representation has its own formulation for update.
