Abstract The development of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) has enabled the access to regions where the presence of onboard human pilots is unnecessary or dangerous but still UAV require a high demand of power to achieve its missions such as taking images/videos in a certain area or surveillance activities. UAVs gain popularity due to its use both in military and civilian sectors in diverse applications such as reconnaissance and monitoring tasks as well as aid relief and delivery services. Their low energy source, battery requires an efficient use for its functioning to achieve specific goal. To deal with this issue, one of methods is to find a minimum route with pre-specified set of waypoints a UAV must fly through to minimize power consumption to complete its mission safely. In this paper, we design a UAV simulation environment instead of an analytical model due to the UAV’s multidisciplinary nature. The simulation model was designed using MATLAB/Simulink environment and AeroSim Blockset, a package of aircraft simulation along with a navigation algorithm through a set of two waypoints. Results show that the simulation model can compute power consumption from one waypoint to another and can be coupled with optimization algorithms in case of huge number of waypoints an UAV has to fly through in order to find a minimum route and therefore minimize power consumption.
