A closed-loop analysis of a solar-powered UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) system involves the integration of various subsystems that optimize the performance of the UAV while operating solely on solar energy. The system is designed to maximize the efficiency of energy harvesting, storage, and consumption through continuous feedback mechanisms. By utilizing solar panels, energy is captured and stored in batteries, which then power the UAV’s motors and other electronic components. A closed-loop control system monitors and adjusts parameters such as energy input, battery status, flight dynamics, and operational conditions to ensure the UAV remains in optimal flight conditions. This approach not only extends flight endurance but also reduces reliance on traditional fuel sources, contributing to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly UAV solution. The analysis typically evaluates the interaction between solar energy, battery management, and UAV performance, providing insights into system optimization and the potential for long duration autonomous flights.
