Dual-system UAVs with vertical take-off and landing capabilities have become increasingly popular in recent years. As a safety-critical system, it is important that a dual-system UAV can maintain safe flight after faults/failures occur.…
A desirable property in fault-tolerant controllers is adaptability to system changes as they evolve during systems operations. An adaptive controller does not require optimal control policies to be enumerated for possible faults. Instead it…
This paper considers optimal control of a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) using the discrete-time, finite-horizon, linear quadratic regulator (LQR). The state of a quadrotor UAV is represented as an element of the matrix Lie group…
This work presents a convex optimization framework for the planning and tracking of quadcopter trajectories with continuous-time safety guarantees. Using B-spline basis functions and the differential flatness property of quadcopters, a…
Autonomous missions of small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are prone to collisions owing to environmental disturbances and localization errors. Consequently, a UAV that can endure collisions and perform recovery control in critical aerial…
A complete model of the motion of a quadcopter along a smooth spatial trajectory is presented. Based on the model, a robust algorithm is proposed for controlling a quadcopter using measurements of linear coordinates and yaw angle. By…
Using the properties of differential flatness, a controllable system, such as a quadcoper model, may be transformed into a linear equivalent system via a coordinate change and an input mapping. This is a straightforward advantage for the…
Conventional quadrotors received great attention in trajectory design and fault-tolerant control in these years. The direction of each thrust is perpendicular to the body because of the geometrics in mechanical design. Comparing with the…
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…
We explore the reinforcement learning approach to designing controllers by extensively discussing the case of a quadcopter attitude controller. We provide all details allowing to reproduce our approach, starting with a model of the dynamics…
The growing potential of quadcopters in various domains, such as aerial photography, search and rescue, and infrastructure inspection, underscores the need for real-time control under strict safety and operational constraints. This…
With the advent of intelligent transport, quadrotors are becoming an attractive solution while lifting or dropping payloads during emergency evacuations, construction works, etc. During such operations, dynamic variations in (possibly…
Quadrotors that can operate predictably in the presence of imperfect model knowledge and external disturbances are crucial in safety-critical applications. We present L1Quad, a control architecture that ensures uniformly bounded transient…
Collision-free flight in cluttered environments is a critical capability for autonomous quadrotors. Traditional methods often rely on detailed 3D map construction, trajectory generation, and tracking. However, this cascade pipeline can…
Safety is one of the most important properties of control systems. Sensor faults and attacks and actuator failures may cause errors in the sensor measurements and system dynamics, which leads to erroneous control inputs and hence safety…
This paper presents a new Proportional-Integral-Derivative-Accelerated (PIDA) control with a derivative filter to improve quadcopter flight stability in a noisy environment. The mathematical model is derived from having an accurate model…
In this paper, we model the planar motion of a quadcopter, and develop a linear model of the same. We perform stability analysis of the open loop system and develop a PD controller for its position control. We compare the closed loop…
This paper develops an adaptive autopilot for quadcopters with unknown dynamics. To do this, the PX4 autopilot architecture is modified so that the feedback and feedforward controllers are replaced by adaptive control laws based on…
This paper aims to develop a Fault Tolerant Control (FTC) architecture, for the case of a damaged actuator for a multirotor UAV that can be applied across multirotor platforms based on their Attainable Virtual Control Set (AVCS). The…
This paper addresses modeling and control of a six-degree-of-freedom unmanned aerial vehicle capable of vertical take-off and landing in the presence of wind disturbances. We design a hybrid vehicle that combines the benefits of both the…
