This paper presents a novel state estimation system for unmanned aerial vehicle landing. A novel vision algorithm that detects a portion of the marker is developed, and this algorithm extends the detectable range of the vision system for any known marker. A vision-aided navigation algorithm is derived within extended Kalman particle filter and Rao–Blackwellized particle filter frameworks in addition to a standard extended Kalman filter framework. These multihypothesis approaches not only deal well with a highly nonlinear and non-Gaussian distribution of the measurement errors of vision but also result in numerically stable filters. The computational costs are reduced compared to a naive implementation of particle filter, and these algorithms run in real time. This system is validated through numerical simulation, image-in-the-loop simulation, and flight tests.
