چکیده

Formally posed in 1965, the problem of optimal attitude estimation from vector measurements has been a hot topic of research in the aerospace community. This paper provides a survey of open source quadrotor helicopter autopilots that demonstrates that the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle community has largely ignored the optimal attitude estimation work to date. Furthermore, the effectiveness of a quadrotor helicopter autopilot utilizing attitude estimates from optimal attitude estimation techniques is evaluated.

Design of an Intelligent Controller for Station Keeping, Attitude Control, and Path Tracking of a Quadrotor Using Recursive Neural Networks

During recent years there has been growing interest in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Moreover, the necessity to control and navigate these vehicles has attracted much attention from researchers in this field. This is mostly due to the fact that the interactions between turbulent airflows apply complex aerodynamic forces to the system. Since the dynamics of a quadrotor are non-linear and the ...

Quadrotor Control Using Fractional-Order PI^λ D^μ Control

Quadrotor control has been noted for its trouble as the consequence of the high maneuverability, system nonlinearity and strongly coupled multivariable. This paper deals with the simulation depend on proposed controller of a quadrotor that can overcome this trouble. The mathematical model of quadrotor is determined using a Newton-Euler formulation. Fractional Order Proportional Integral Derivat...

Robust Control of a Quadrotor

In this paper, a robust tracking control method for automatic take-off and trajectory tracking of a quadrotor helicopter is presented. The designed controller includes two parts: a position controller and an attitude controller. The attitude controller is designed by using the sliding mode control (SMC) method to track the desired pitch and roll angles, which are the output of position controll...

Examination of Quadrotor Inverse Simulation Problem Using Trust-Region Dogleg Solution Method

In this paper, the particular solution technique for inverse simulation applied to the quadrotor maneuvering flight is investigated. The ‎trust-region dogleg (DL) technique which is proposed alleviates the weakness of Newton’s method used for numerical differentiation of system states in the solution process. The proposed technique emphasizes global convergence solution to the inverse simulatio...
