A hybrid robust adaptive control for a quadrotor UAV via mass observer and robust controller

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2021
The flight stability and safety of the quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with variable mass are the key problems that limit its application. In order to improve the stability and steady-state control precision of the quadrotor system against slow ...

Formation control of a group of micro aerial vehicles (MAVs) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Coordinated motion of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has been a growing research interest in the last decade. In this paper we propose a coordination model that makes use of virtual springs and dampers to generate reference trajectories for a group of ...

A modular software architecture for UAVs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
There have been several attempts to create scalable and hardware independent software architectures for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV). In this work, we propose an onboard architecture for UAVs where hardware abstraction, data storage and communication ...

Robust Backstepping Sliding Mode Control for a Quadrotor Trajectory Tracking Application

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
This paper proposes a robust position control scheme for a quadrotor UAV system under uncertainties. The proposed control algorithms combine integral sliding mode and backstepping sliding mode controllers in a double-loop control structure (i.e., inner ...

Nonlinear PID controller design for a 6-DOF UAV quadrotor system

open access: yesEngineering Science and Technology, an International Journal, 2019
A Nonlinear PID (NLPID) controller is proposed to stabilize the translational and rotational motion of a 6-Degree of Freedom (DOF) unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) quadrotor system and enforce it to track a given trajectory with minimum energy and error ...

Optimization of a neural network based direct inverse control for controlling a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2015
UAVs are mostly used for surveillance, inspection and data acquisition. We have developed a Quadrotor UAV that is constructed based on a four motors with a lift-generating propeller at each motors. In this paper, we discuss the development of a quadrotor

Nonlinear Landing Control for Quadrotor UAVs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Quadrotor UAVs are one of the most preferred type of small unmanned aerial vehicles because of the very simple mechanical construction and propulsion principle. However, the nonlinear dynamic behavior requires a more advanced stabilizing control and guidance of these vehicles.

Secure LQG control for a Quadrotor under false data injection attacks

open access: yesIET Control Theory & Applications, 2022
The linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control for a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) under false data injection attacks is studied. The LQG control depends on optimal state estimation, while this type of attacks makes the optimal state estimation ...
