Application and Performance Improvement of Stepper Motor in Drones.

    As an important component of modern aviation, drone technology has been continuously expanding in its application scope, and the performance requirements for its execution components are also increasing. Stepper motors have been widely used in unmanned aerial vehicles due to their advantages of simple structure, convenient control, and high accuracy. This article aims to explore the application and performance improvement methods of stepper motors in unmanned aerial vehicles.

    Application of stepper motor in unmanned aerial vehicles

    1. Attitude control: During the flight of the drone, it is necessary to drive the servo through a stepper motor to achieve precise control of its attitude.

    2. Servo system: As the driving component of the servo, the stepper motor can adjust the flight path of the drone.

    3. Load release device: When performing specific tasks, the drone needs to drive the load release device through a stepper motor to complete the task.

    4. Autonomous obstacle avoidance system: Stepper motors are used in unmanned aerial vehicle autonomous obstacle avoidance systems to drive relevant sensors and actuators, ensuring safe flight of the drone.

    Methods for improving the performance of stepper motors

    1. Drive circuit optimization: By improving the design of the drive circuit, the response speed and torque output of the stepper motor can be increased.

    2. Control strategy improvement: Advanced control algorithms such as fuzzy control and neural network control are adopted to improve the control accuracy of stepper motors.

    3. Motor body optimization: By optimizing the motor structure design, the efficiency and stability of the stepper motor can be improved.

    4. Fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant control: Real time monitoring of the operating status of stepper motors, detecting faults and promptly handling them to improve the reliability of unmanned aerial vehicle systems.

    Stepper motors have broad application prospects in drones, and through performance improvement measures, the performance and reliability of drone systems can be further enhanced. In future work, we will continue to conduct in-depth research on the application of stepper motors in drones, contributing to the development of drone technology.
