FixedWingLateralGuidanceStatus (UORB message)

Fixed Wing Lateral Guidance Status message. Published by fw_pos_control module to report the resultant lateral setpoints and NPFG debug outputs.

TOPICS: fixed_wing_lateral_guidance_status

Fields

Name	Type	Unit [Frame]	Range/Enum	Description
timestamp	uint64			time since system start (microseconds)
course_setpoint	float32	rad	[-pi : pi]	Desired direction of travel over ground w.r.t (true) North. Set by guidance law
lateral_acceleration_ff	float32	FRD		lateral acceleration demand only for maintaining curvature
bearing_feas	float32		[0 : 1]	bearing feasibility
bearing_feas_on_track	float32		[0 : 1]	on-track bearing feasibility
signed_track_error	float32	m		signed track error
track_error_bound	float32	m		track error bound
adapted_period	float32	s		adapted period (if auto-tuning enabled)
wind_est_valid	uint8	boolean		true = wind estimate is valid and/or being used by controller (also indicates if wind estimate usage is disabled despite being valid)
