Abstract
A computer-implemented method of enabling optimisation of trajectory for a vehicle, the method comprising: determining a trajectory for the vehicle using: an algorithm; a vehicle model defining path constraints for the vehicle through space; a propulsion system model defining parameters of a propulsion system of the vehicle; an objective function defining one or more objectives; and controlling output of the determined trajectory.
Claims18
A computer-implemented method of enabling optimisation of trajectory for a vehicle, the computer-implemented method comprising:
- determining a trajectory for the vehicle and a derate for a propulsion system using:
- an algorithm;
- a vehicle model defining path constraints for the vehicle through space;
- a propulsion system model defining parameters of the propulsion system of the vehicle;
- and
- an objective function defining one or more objectives,
- wherein the algorithm uses the vehicle model, the propulsion system model, and the objective function as inputs to determine the trajectory for the vehicle, the determined trajectory being an optimized trajectory;
- and
- wherein the algorithm uses the vehicle model, the propulsion system model, and the objective function as inputs to optimize the derate for the propulsion system;
- and
- controlling output of the determined trajectory and the determined derate.
