Research on Aircraft Autopilot Systems and Remote Control Technology for Commercial Aircraft

Abstract

This article provides a comprehensive review of commercial aircraft autopilot systems and remote control technologies. With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and 5G communication technologies, aircraft piloting is undergoing a profound transformation toward automation and remote control. This article briefly describes the components and operating modes of the autopilot system, introduces the shock wave adaptive control system, and lists several technical and process optimization methods for shock wave adaptive control systems. It also describes the current status and development trends of flight management systems. It also examines the components of the remote control system and the optimization technologies for satellite and very high frequency communications within the communication link. It finds that intelligent perception, autonomous decisionmaking, and high-performance communication links are essential foundations for efficient and autonomous aircraft operation. This article can provide a reference for the design, development, and engineering application of intelligent flight systems and remote-controlled flight systems for future commercial aircraft.
