Mermoz© simulator: use of a database to estimate the photovoltaic input on a UAV. Application to a transatlantic voyage

This paper introduces the Mermoz simulator, developed to predict the photovoltaic energy contribution of solar cells mounted on a low-altitude unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) over long-distance flights. This MATLAB-based tool implements a modular model of the UAV and its environment from an energy-foc...
