A landing system suitable for receiving an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) comprises an autonomous ground vehicle (AGV). A landing surface is disposed on the AGV, and the landing system comprises a loading channel suitable for passing an object delivered by the UAV through a first loading channel opening in the landing surface. The object passes within the loading channel through to a second loading channel opening at a bottom aspect of the AGV. In this way, a UAV can land on the landing surface, and the AGV positions the object in line with a target delivery location, where the object is delivered. Aspects of the landing system comprise an electromagnet or vacuum chamber for securing the UAV to the landing surface, thereby enhancing stability of the UAV during movement of the landing system.

Aircraft position control system, aircraft, and aircraft position control method

An aircraft position control system includes a processor configured to calculate a feedback manipulated variable of an aircraft by feedback control so that the aircraft heads toward a target landing point, based on at least a relative position and a relative velocity. The processor is further configured to set an addition value, by referring to a switching line preliminarily provided in a manner passing through an origin of a coordinate plane having orthogonal axes representing the relative position and the relative velocity and separating an acceleration region in which the relative velocity is to be increased and a deceleration region in which the relative velocity is to be decreased. The addition value tends to increase the relative velocity when a coordinate point of a current relative position and a current relative velocity is located in the acceleration region to calculate a manipulated variable of the aircraft.
