Abstract

Nowadays Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) have an integrated and collaborative framework that is used in many applications such as military, security and surveillance, service delivery, disaster rescue, and much more due to its flexibility and accessibility of flying. The Unmanned Arial Vehicle (UAV) or drone is useful to perform a task without a pilot on it and it also has features like path planning. The system contains a computing and communication system onboard that allows communication with the physical drone and ground stations. The control and navigation of the UAS involve the gathering of sensor data and fuse using the Attitude Heading Reference System (AHRS). This can be realized using the SITL simulator of the drone by using python API which can send Mavlink messages to the autopilot. We can increase the precession of automation in our UAV's using SITL to send Mavlink messages on flight gear 3D virtual environment. This paper performs the study of the AHRS by deploying the standard surveillance mission by a quadrotor UAV which performs actions on the software in the loop simulator.
