Developed and enhanced the acsl-tcu/common_matlab repository over five months, focusing on simulation, control systems, and data visualization for robotics and flight control applications. Delivered seventeen features and addressed critical bugs by refactoring the drone control framework into modular components, introducing a Simulation UI, and improving experiment reproducibility through versioned simulators and expanded test coverage. Leveraged MATLAB, Simulink, and the Symbolic Math Toolbox to implement robust state estimation, trajectory generation, and logging systems. The work emphasized maintainability, configurability, and traceability, enabling more reliable experiments, streamlined debugging, and scalable architecture for future development in embedded and simulation-driven environments.
April 2026 - Drone Control Framework Architecture Refactor with Simulation UI (acsl-tcu/common_matlab). This month focused on architectural improvements to the drone control codebase, introducing modular components (Controller, Estimator, Reference System) and a Simulation UI to accelerate validation and future feature work. The refactor reduces coupling, improves testability, and lays the groundwork for scalable feature delivery. The changes were merged via PR #4 (commit cabbd4a2e2cd82c2c0ab19f47fc181245c05842c).

July 2025: Upgraded plotting and GUI integration in acsl-tcu/common_matlab to deliver targeted, state-aware visualizations and faster analysis. Implemented a flexible data_range parameter in the LOGGER plotting path, replacing the legacy ranget mechanism and enabling precise data subsetting. Updated mainGUI.m to initialize simulation mode with SimBaseMode(3) and to pass the 'tf' phase to the logger plot function, resulting in more informative plots aligned with the current simulation state. Major bugs fixed: none reported this period.

In 2025-06, delivered three integrated feature streams for acsl-tcu/common_matlab: (1) Takeoff and Landing Reference Generation and Allocation Enhancements to unify reference handling, initialize cha_allocation for takeoff/landing, and improve trajectory tracking and ground-effect mitigation; (2) Suspended Load Simulation and Controller to add a suspended-load scenario with updated simulation loop, NATNET connector mapping, and controller adjustments for higher accuracy and stability; (3) Enhanced Logging, Plotting, and Phase-Based Analysis to overhaul logging, data loading, and plotting for phase-filtered analysis, consolidated plots, and robust data handling. These changes enable more reliable flight control and faster, data-driven experimentation.

March 2025 was centered on stabilizing the simulation workflow, increasing configurability, and improving build/readiness to accelerate repeatable experiments in acsl-tcu/common_matlab. Delivered per-atfl property configuration, stabilized suspended-load handling, cleaned up the codebase by removing deprecated components, activated SimHL workflows, and introduced system-wide enhancements for build readiness, experiment timing, and preprocessing. These changes reduce runtime errors, improve deployment flexibility, and sharpen the team’s ability to run reliable experiments with clearer logging and faster iteration.
