Andrew Tridgell e698d1f47e AP_TECS: use 64 bit micros
prevent possible wrap if TECS is not run for a long time
2016-05-14 08:26:09 +10:00
Tom Pittenger 431b3c7160 AP-TECS: constrain proportion to 0-1 for spdweight scale so it doesn't grow backup after land point 2016-04-21 21:31:02 -07:00
Tom Pittenger 595badce3e AP_TECS: rely on single flag for all land stage differences
recent fixes in Plane have made the stage more accurate so exceptions/hacks are no longer needed to differentiate between knowing if executing NAV_LAND vs being in stage_approach.

Andrew Tridgell 602ff03c41 AP_TECS: limit both negative and positive pitch on quadplane transition
this makes for smoother auto takeoff

Andrew Tridgell b4c6a0e30e AP_TECS: added logging of speed_weight and state flags 2016-03-26 08:41:09 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 8ff932b61c AP_TECS: allow underspeed to end faster
we now can exit an underspeed condition if we stay above min speed for
3 seconds and also reach 15% above min speed. This prevents a problem
with the thrust line causing downpitch leading to a crash due to too
much throttle

Tom Pittenger a85d4f2f4b AP_TECS: reverse-thrust cleanup
- throttle slew rate was using % full range including the negative range (-100 to +100 instead of 0 to 100) which meant it was faster
- throttle integrator windup limit was higher than normal because it's a porportional to throttle max - min but that makes no sense when min is negative causing larger limits

Tom Pittenger 67e2db7975 AP_TECS: add TECS_LAND_PDAMP
// @Description: This is the damping gain for the pitch demand loop. Increase to add damping  to correct for oscillations in speed and height. If set to 0 then TECS_PTCH_DAMP will be used instead.
2016-03-02 10:54:21 -08:00
Tom Pittenger fcb802cccc AP_TECS: add TECS_LAND_I_GAIN and TECS_TKOFF_I_GAIN
// more integral gain options for land
2016-03-02 10:54:20 -08:00
Tom Pittenger a139789693 AP_TECS: add TECS_LAND_TDAMP for land damp
+     // @Description: This is the damping gain for the throttle demand loop during and auto-landing. Same as TECS_THR_DAMP but only in effect during an auto-land. Increase to add damping to correct for oscillations in speed and height. When set to 0 landing throttle damp is controlled by TECS_THR_DAMP.

Tom Pittenger 67ce22660e AP_TECS: 1/3 new param TECS_LAND_SRC for Land Sink Rate Change
// @Description: When zero, the flare sink rate (TECS_LAND_SINK) is a fixed sink demand. With this enabled the flare sinkrate will increase/decrease the flare sink demand as you get further beyond the LAND waypoint. Has no effect before the waypoint. This value is added to TECS_LAND_SINK proportional to distance traveled after wp. With an increasing sink rate you can still land in a given distance if you're traveling too fast and cruise passed the land point. A positive value will force the plane to land sooner proportional to distance passed land point. A negative number will tell the plane to slowly climb allowing for a pitched-up stall landing. Recommend 0.2 as initial value.

Tom Pittenger 5ba2bff85f AP_TECS: Reverse Thrust
Reverse thrust for controlled landings, even with much steeper approach slopes. This is achieved by allowing throttle demand to go negative to maintain a target airspeed. A Pre-Flare stage was added, triggered by an altitude, to allow for a slower airspeed just before land. That lower airspeed can be near stall.

Lucas De Marchi 2591261af6 Global: rename min and max macros to uppercase
The problem with using min() and max() is that they conflict with some
C++ headers. Name the macros in uppercase instead. We may go case by
case later converting them to be typesafe.

Lucas De Marchi 831d8acca5 Remove use of PROGMEM
Now variables don't have to be declared with PROGMEM anymore, so remove
them. This was automated with:

    git grep -l -z PROGMEM | xargs -0 sed -i 's/ PROGMEM / /g'
    git grep -l -z PROGMEM | xargs -0 sed -i 's/PROGMEM//g'

The 2 commands were done so we don't leave behind spurious spaces.

AVR-specific places were not changed.

Andrew Tridgell 36432e6515 AP_TECS: use climb rate filter consistently between DCM and EKF
we should use baro height not hgt_afe for the climb rate filter. This
makes the climb rate consistent with the one from the EKF. The lidar
correction comes in with the demanded height, not the observed height

Gustavo Jose de Sousa 1fbbe3ed81 AP_TECS: standardize inclusion of libaries headers
This commit changes the way libraries headers are included in source files:

 - If the header is in the same directory the source belongs to, so the
 notation '#include ""' is used with the path relative to the directory
 containing the source.

 - If the header is outside the directory containing the source, then we use
 the notation '#include <>' with the path relative to libraries folder.

Some of the advantages of such approach:

 - Only one search path for libraries headers.

 - OSs like Windows may have a better lookup time.

Andrew Tridgell 5a4ed85588 AP_TECS: added TECS_LAND_PMAX
this limits maximum pitch during the flare, which both reduces
integrator windup and prevents too high pitch which can cause a stall

Andrew Tridgell 060f553097 AP_TECS: provide a much smoother transition before flare
this moves the pitch constraint smoothly between unconstrained and
fully constrained over two time constants before the flare. This
greatly reduces the sudden pitch changes at flare

Andrew Tridgell 597273cfff AP_TECS: remove lag from height demand in landing
this predicts ahead the height demand for landing, where we have a
continuous demanded descent. This removes the effect of the lag
introduced by the height demand filters

priseborough e2d47f836e AP_TECS: Fix bug causing plane to fly high on landing approach
The introduction of the height rate flare logic caused the demanded height rate to be zero except when a flare manouevre was being performed. This caused the plane to lag behind height changes if the D gain was non-zero, which caused it to fly high during landing approach.

priseborough d6508acfa5 AP_TECS : Prevent throttle undershoot after climb
If the plane was unable to achieve the climb and got significantly below the internal TECS demanded climb profile, the the PD term would be a large value at the top of climb, and would take some time to reduce due to the rate limiter. This meant that the integrator state could be pushed to a very low value and effectively cause the throttle to sit on the lower limit for longer than desired after levelling out.

Andrew Tridgell 7547cd45f5 AP_TECS: bring the flare height rate demand in slowly

Andrew Tridgell 500e20b08d AP_TECS: make TECS aware of LAND_PITCH_CD
this makes the flare a bit smoother
2014-08-27 20:11:48 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 68dd61c7c7 AP_TECS: added TECS_LAND_TCONST
this allows control of the time constant for landing in TECS. A lower
time constant gives tighter altitude control on landing approach
2014-08-27 17:14:19 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 2297c6bcd2 AP_TECS: added TECS_LAND_SINK parameter
this controls the sink rate for the final stage of landing
2014-08-13 21:38:05 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 7c4d31c481 AP_TECS: added TECS_PITCH_MAX and TECS_PITCH_MIN
this allows the TECS controlled pitch limits to be smaller than the
FBWA limits. It is common for a human pilot to want a bit more
discretion over pitch than you want the automatic controller to use

Andrew Tridgell a55c4e2296 AP_TECS: set target airspeed, not min/max airspeed, on landing
this seems to prevent ballooning of the altitude when we are in the
landing approach, and gives a much smoother landing

Also controlling pitch by ignoring height error during landing.

Paul Riseborough 585d61b960 AP_TECS : Reduce tendency to overspeed during climbout
The old code relies on the action of the integrator to raise the nose above the minimum pitch angle which depending on the model and the tuning can be too slow to correct. Biasing the pitch angle to climbout minimum will reduce the taken before an overspeed condition is corrected.
