This paper presents the path following algorithm with waypoint switching strategy for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) based on the geometric. The two-dimensional (2-D) guidance law, makes the UAV converge to and then follow a given desired path, is developed in a quite simple formulation. The coordinate position of the point that switch from straight line to circular arc or from circular arc to straight line is obtained. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the proposed algorithms are feasible to perform UAV.
