This paper focuses on the control of a system composed of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and an Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) which cooperate to manipulate an object. The two units are subject to actuator saturations and cooperate to move…

A control system verification framework is presented for unmanned aerial vehicles using theorem proving. The framework's aim is to set out a procedure for proving that the mathematically designed control system of the aircraft satisfies…

This paper proposes a geometric adaptive controller for a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle with artificial neural networks. It is assumed that the dynamics of a quadrotor is disturbed by arbitrary, unstructured forces and moments caused by…

In this study, a fault-tolerant super-twisting sliding mode controller with a control allocation system for a quadrotor aircraft is proposed. Super twisting sliding mode control is a robust control technique that handles a system with a…

Nonlinear PID control systems for a quadrotor UAV are proposed to follow an attitude tracking command and a position tracking command. The control systems are developed directly on the special Euclidean group to avoid singularities of…

Full autonomy for fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) requires the capability to autonomously detect potential landing sites in unknown and unstructured terrain, allowing for self-governed mission completion or handling of emergency…

This paper investigates tracking controls for an arbitrary number of cooperating quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles with a suspended rigid body payload. Assuming that a rigid body is connected to multiple quadrotors by rigid massless links,…

We propose a new position control strategy for VTOL-UAVs using IMU and GPS measurements. Since there is no sensor that measures the attitude, our approach does not rely on the knowledge (or reconstruction) of the system orientation as…

Autonomous fixed-wing UAV landing based on differential GPS is now a mainstream providing reliable and precise landing. But the task still remains challenging when GPS availability is limited like for military UAVs. We discuss a solution of…

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) will be critical infrastructural components of future smart cities. In order to operate efficiently, UAV reliability must be ensured by constant monitoring for faults and failures. To this end, the work…

Vision is an essential part of attitude control for many flying animals, some of which have no dedicated sense of gravity. Flying robots, on the other hand, typically depend heavily on accelerometers and gyroscopes for attitude…

Achieving precise, highly-dynamic maneuvers with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is a major challenge due to the complexity of the associated aerodynamics. In particular, unsteady effects -- as might be experienced in post-stall regimes or…

This paper presents a nonlinear control law for the stabilization of a fixed-wing UAV. Such controller solves the path-following problem and the longitudinal control problem in a single control. Furthermore, the control design is performed…

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) suffer from sensor drifts in GPS denied environments, which can lead to potentially dangerous situations. To avoid intolerable sensor drifts in the presence of GPS spoofing attacks, we propose a safety…

This paper considers the problem of controlling a quadrotor to go through a window and land on a planar target, the landing pad, using an Image-Based Visual Servo (IBVS) controller that relies on sensing information from two on-board…
