Application of fractional algorithms in control of a quad rotor flight
This paper studies the application of fractional algorithms in the control of a quad-rotor rotorcraft machine. The main contribution of this paper focuses in the development a flight simulator to provide the evaluation model of the quad-rotor. Several basic maneuvers are investigated, namely the elevation and the position control.N/
Controlling a drone: Comparison between a based model method and a fuzzy inference system
International audienceThe work describes an automatically on-line self-tunable fuzzy inference system (STFIS) of a new configuration of mini-flying called XSF (X4 Stationnary Flyer) drone. A fuzzy controller based on on-line optimization of a zero order Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy inference system (FIS) by a back propagation-like algorithm is successfully applied. It is used to minimize a cost function that is made up of a quadratic error term and a weight decay term that prevents an excessive growth of parameters. Thus, we carried out control for the continuation of simple trajectories such as the follow-up of straight lines, and complex (half circle, corner, and helicoidal) by using the STFIS technique. This permits to prove the effectiveness of the proposed control law. Simulation results and a comparison with a static feedback linearization controller (SFL) are presented and discussed. We studied the robustness of the two controllers used in the presence of disturbances. We presented two types of disturbances, the case of a breakdown of an engine as well as a gust of wind
The adaptive control system of quadrocopter motion
In this paper we present a system for automatic control of a quadrocopter based on the adaptive control system. The task is to ensure the motion of the quadrocopter along the given route and to control the stabilization of the quadrocopter in the air in a horizontal or in a given angular position by sending control signals to the engines. The nonlinear model of a quadrocopter is expressed in the form of a linear non-stationary system

Design of an embedded microcomputer based mini quadrotor UAV
This paper describes the design and realization of a mini quadrotor UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) that has been initiated in the Systems and Control Laboratory at the Computer and Automation Research institute of the Hungarian Academy of Science in collaboration with control departments of the Budapest University of Technology and Economics. The mini quadrotor UAV is intended to use in several areas such as camera-based air-surveillance, traffic control, environmental measurements, etc. The paper focuses upon the embedded microcomputer-based implementation of the mini UAV, describes the elements of the implementation, the tools realized for mathematical model building, as well as obtains a brief outline of the control design
