Aksungur UAV Control System Explanation

This document provides an explanation of the control subsystem illustrated in the given diagram,
which represents the sensor and tracking controls of the Aksungur Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
(UAV).

1. Overview
The diagram shows part of the payload control system of the Aksungur UAV. It focuses on the
control logic for the Electro-Optical/Infrared (EO/IR) sensor and targeting unit, which handles
scanning, stabilization, and tracking of targets during missions.

2. Control Block
This is the main top-level control for the sensor system. It manages power and basic sensor
functions such as laser ranging and tracking. The key elements include:
• Stow – Moves the sensor to a parked or safe position.
• Laser range logic – Controls the laser rangefinder for distance measurement.
• Illuminator – Activates the infrared or laser illumination system.
• Autotracker mode – Enables automatic target following.
• TIS power – Powers the Thermal Imaging System.

3. STA Control (Stabilization and Tracking Assembly)


This subsystem ensures the camera or sensor stays stable and properly oriented even when the
UAV is moving. It compensates for drift and maintains accuracy.
• Auto drift cancel – Compensates for aircraft motion.
• In-flight auto boresight – Aligns the sensor with UAV reference.
• Scan pattern – Initiates area scanning.
• Heading hold / Hold pitch – Keeps the sensor fixed on a heading or pitch.
• Use current attitude – Uses UAV’s current orientation for stabilization.

4. Setup Scan Pattern


This section defines how the sensor scans the environment. It allows the operator to configure
scanning parameters for target search and surveillance.
• Pattern – Defines the scan type (grid, circular, etc.).
• Scan width – The width of the scanning area.
• Scan rate – The speed at which scanning occurs.
• Scan elevation – The vertical range of the scan.
• Scan centre azimuth – Sets the central direction.
• Set scan centre – Fixes the center of the scanning area.

5. Integration within Aksungur UAV


Within the Aksungur UAV system, this control subsystem is part of the overall mission management
architecture. It works alongside the flight control, engine control, and mission computers to ensure
precise sensor operation and target tracking during both reconnaissance and strike missions.
Conclusion
The control logic described in this diagram demonstrates how the Aksungur UAV manages its
payload sensor systems. By combining stabilization, scanning, and tracking control, the UAV can
effectively detect, follow, and engage targets while maintaining flight stability.
