Experimental applied study on advanced quadcopter control using a special setup to conduct a series of experiments of roll and pitch motion control with robust output controllers.
Abstract
This paper describes an experimental applied study on advanced quadcopter control. A special setup is used to conduct a series of experiments of roll and pitch motion control. Three robust output controllers are verified. One of the controllers is the consecutive compensator, the remaining two are its modifications aimed to increase precision and reduce overshoot. Experiment specifications and comparative analysis of resultant performance of transient responses are reported in this paper.

Improved adaptive coding procedure for transferring the navigation data between UAVs in formation

TL;DR: It is shown by the simulations, and confirmed by the testbed experiments, that the habitual adaptive coding procedure has lower accuracy, which can have a critical meaning for UAV's formation control.

Disturbance accomodation control for wind rejection of a quadcopter

TL;DR: In this article, a disturbance accommodating controller (DAC) and a nonlinear feed-forward controller were used to reject wind disturbances of a UAV. But, the DAC controller was found to be affected by changes in wind speed due to its linear nature, and the performance of the DAC and nonlinear controllers was evaluated in simulation against the unmodified baseline.

Output controller for quadcopters with wind disturbance cancellation

TL;DR: A multicopter with four symmetrical rotors, i.e. a quadcopter, is chosen to illustrate proposed adaptive control approach based on the high-gain principle, so-called, “consecutive compensator”, which also allows to cancel unknown wind disturbances changing their values and directions negligibly slowly.

Experimental validation of a quaternion-based attitude estimation with direct input to a quadcopter control system

TL;DR: In this article, the attitude quaternion of a quadcopter is calculated using the shortest rotation arc from the gravity vector in the navigation frame, and the attitude estimation is directly used as an input to the attitude controller.
