Abstract
Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft has gained significant attention as a basic element of urban air mobility (UAM), a potential solution for urban transportation challenges using low-altitude urban airspace. Ensuring the safe operation of eVTOL is crucial for UAM applications, which are related to various professional fields such as aerodynamics, control, structures, and power systems. This article systematically analyzes the characteristics of different design configurations, including multi-rotor, lift+cruise, and tilt-rotor types of eVTOL. The advantages and limitations of each type of eVTOL are analyzed. After that, the overall design problems are analyzed, and challenges of eVTOL control system design are discussed from aspects of overall control structure and subsystems, such as controller, sensors, actuators, and command generator. This article tries to fill the gap in the eVTOL design from a control perspective and provides some resolutions for the eVTOL application.
期刊介绍：
The IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Vehicles (T-IV) is a premier platform for publishing peer-reviewed articles that present innovative research concepts, application results, significant theoretical findings, and application case studies in the field of intelligent vehicles. With a particular emphasis on automated vehicles within roadway environments, T-IV aims to raise awareness of pressing research and application challenges.
Our focus is on providing critical information to the intelligent vehicle community, serving as a dissemination vehicle for IEEE ITS Society members and others interested in learning about the state-of-the-art developments and progress in research and applications related to intelligent vehicles. Join us in advancing knowledge and innovation in this dynamic field.
