When modeling the dynamic properties of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and an automatic control system (ACS), it is often necessary to take into account factors such as the lack of rigidity of the aircraft structure, the influence of control and destabilizing factors, which leads to an increase in the order of the model under study. The known numerical and analytical methods do not allow us to obtain general solutions for the variable parameters of the high-order system under study, and at the same time provide the required amount of error and computational costs. A method is developed to model the dynamic properties of UAVs and high-order control systems based on the spectral method, the linear approximation by parts of the input control actions and the spectrum of the system's output signal. An example of using the technique to model the dynamic properties of different orders ACS UAVs (from 1 to 10) with different types of inertia is considered. Based on the analysis of errors in the calculation of the transition process, the effectiveness of the method for analyzing high-order systems is shown based on the required computational costs.

When modeling Automatic Control Systems (ACS) of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), it is often necessary to take into account the nonlinearity of an aircraft's reaction when the controls drift, as well as the strong influence of various destabilizing factors that make the system go out of linear mode. When known analytical and numerical methods are used to analyze dynamic systems, it is problematic to obtain general solutions that are valid for the variable parameters of the system under study and, at the same time, provide the required error value. A method has been developed to model dynamic processes in automatic non-linear UAV control systems based on linear approximation by parts and crosslinking of partial solutions with consideration of the initial conditions. An example of using the technique to model the transition characteristics of an ACS UAV with a single non-linear link is considered. Based on the analysis of errors in the calculation of the transition process, the effectiveness of the proposed approach is shown.
