Abstract

In this paper, a new systematic approach for designing a self-tuning controller for an autonomous quadrotor robot is introduced. In order to design the self-tuning controller, first, a linearized dynamic model of a quadrotor about hovering positions is derived, and then the successive loop closure approach is applied to design the self-tuning PID controller of the attitude, altitude and velocity for the autonomous flying capability of the flying robot. In addition, nonlinearities of the design model are also imposed in the control loop by taking into account the saturation of actuators. For the verification of the effectiveness of the proposed controller, various simulation studies are carried out in terms of the accuracy and robustness.
