This paper comprehensively reviews renewable power systems for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), including batteries, fuel cells, solar photovoltaic cells, and hybrid configurations, from historical perspectives to recent advances. The study evaluates these systems regarding energy density, power output, endurance, and integration challenges.
Additionally, it ensures that solar-powered UAVs make sufficient use of solar energy to complete high-altitude and long-duration flights in any flight task, reduce the energy consumption of the battery, and improve the flight performance of solar-powered UAVs. 2. Energy system model for solar-powered unmanned aerial vehicle
In the field of aviation, solar-powered unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have attracted attention owing to their high-altitude cruise and the availability of renewable energy, .
The energy-consuming system comprises a thrust system and airborne equipment; the thrust system comprises a motor, propeller, reducer, and direct current/alternating current (DC/AC) converter, . Herein, an energy management system was used to control the energy distribution of a solar-powered UAV. Fig. 1.
