Nonlinear and optimal real-time control of a rotary-wing UAV
Résumé
In this contribution nonlinear stabilizing and optimal nonlinear control strategies for a quadrotor mini helicopter are addressed. These control strategies are an alternative for the control of flying machines not much explored yet. Simulation and real-time experiences are presented in this contribution. Nonlinear stabilizing control algorithm has been successfully implemented on an autonomous aerial vehicle and demonstrates an acceptable performance.
