Time-Delay Control of Quadrotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicles: A Multiplicity-Induced-Dominancy Based Approach
Résumé
The current work exploits the effects of time-delays on the stability of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). In this regard, the main contribution is a symbolic/numeric application of the Multiplicity-Induced-Dominancy (MID) property in the control of UAVs rotorcrafts featuring time-delays. The MID property is considered to address two of the most representative aerial robotic platforms: a classical quadrotor vehicle and a quadrotor vehicle endowed with tilting-rotors. The aforementioned property leads to an effective delayed feedback control design (MID tuning criteria), allowing the system to meet prescribed behavior conditions based on the placement of the rightmost root of the corresponding closed-loop characteristic function/quasipolynomial. Lastly, the results of detailed numerical simulations, including the linear and non-linear dynamics of the vehicle, are presented and discussed to validate the proposal.
