Control of a Quadrotor With Reinforcement Learning [PDF]
In this paper, we present a method to control a quadrotor with a neural network trained using reinforcement learning techniques. With reinforcement learning, a common network can be trained to directly map state to actuator command making any predefined control structure obsolete for training. Moreover, we present a new learning algorithm which differs

The rotor is an essential actuator of quadrotor UAV, and is prone to failure due to high speed rotation and environmental disturbances. It is difficult to diagnose rotor faults and identify the fault localization simultaneously. In this paper, we propose

This document describes standard approaches for filtering and estimation for quadrotors, created for the Udacity Flying Cars course. We assume previous knowledge of probability and some knowledge of linear algebra. We do not assume previous knowledge of Kalman filters or Bayes filters. This document derives an EKF for various models of drones in 1D, 2D,

The quadrotors are useful for periodic inspections of tunnels and bridges. However, the conventional quadrotor has a problem such that it is impossible to control the rotational motion and the translational motion independently.

Analysis and Control of a Planar Quadrotor
In this paper, we model the planar motion of a quadcopter, and develop a linear model of the same. We perform stability analysis of the open loop system and develop a PD controller for its position control. We compare the closed loop response between the linear and non linear systems using the controller developed for the linear system. We also perform
