Group Task 1 [Dorf, Ch. 1, E1.10] Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV’s) are being developed to operate in the air autonomously for long periods of time. By autonomous, we mean that there is no interaction with human ground controllers. Sketch a block diagram on an autonomous UAV that is tasked for crop monitoring and that must fly a pre-specified trajectory as accurately as possible. Label all of the blocks with both specific and general terms. Define servo and (one possible) control problem.

Watch out! PO = (25-23.75)/(23.75-10) * 100 = approx. 10%
Group Task 2 • For a pressurecontrolproblem, a controller is requiredwith the followingspecificationsfor the controlproblem: • For a unit step change of the disturbance • the steady state errorshouldbelessthan 0.3 bar; • the percentage overshoot has to be smaller than 20%; • the 4% settling time shouldbe smaller than 5 seconds. • Assumingyouuse a controller thatjustmeets these specifications, make a plot of the CV with respect to time, assumingthat the CV is constant and equal to 10 bar whensuddenly a step of sizeone is applied to the disturbance at t=5s.
Group Task 3 [basedonDorf P1.11] Tank 1 • Discuss the workingprinciple of this water clock. • Whichvariable is the controlledvariablez(t)? • Draw the blockscheme of the feedback loop. • What does the referencetrajectory r(t) look like? • Whatwill the process input u(t)ideally look like? • Define a possibledisturbance and show howitmightinfluence the correct working of the water clock.
