Overview of the research on state-of-the-art measurement sensors for UAV navigation

The skyrocketing development of the civilian drones' market, which follows the military solutions, results in boosting research on UAV avionics systems. The research includes a development of classic navigation and control as well as innovative methods that require e.g. infrared and visible light cameras, laser or magnetic field sensors. In this paper, we focus on the research on UAV's navigation and control systems, state-of-the-art measurement sensors involved in classic systems as well as the research on innovative methods of navigation and control.
