Adjustment mechanism with sliding mode for adaptive PD controller applied to unmanned fixed-wing MAV altitude

<p>This work presents an adjustment mechanism with the sliding modes technique to design a proportional derivative (PD) controller adaptive gains. The objective and contribution are robust in presence of unknown not modeled perturbations system; this perturbation can be considered wind gusts. is designed MIT rule gradient method mode theory. PD obtained applied regulate unmanned fixed-wing miniature aerial vehicle (MAV’s) altitude.</p>
