The unknown disturbances and the changing uncertainties bring difficulties for designing a stable attitude controller for UAV. In this paper, a novel adaptive fault-tolerant attitude control approach is designed based on the long short-term memory (LSTM) network for the fixed-wing UAV subject to the high dynamic disturbances and actuator faults. Firstly, the high dynamic disturbances can be compensated by the adaptive laws. Meanwhile, the actuator faults can be handled by the proposed adaptive fault-tolerant control (AFTC) scheme. Moreover, the LSTM network is introduced to approximate the unknown and time-accumulating nonlinearities. With the introduction of the one-to-one nonlinear mapping (NM), the output constraints in the control system can be guaranteed. Additionally, it can be demonstrated that the boundness of all the signals can be assured. At last, numerical simulation results are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Active Fault Tolerant Control

In this study, the active fault-tolerant control problem is investigated for a rigid spacecraft in the presence of inertia uncertainty, external disturbance, multiple actuator faults and actuator saturation. The attitude system model of spacecraft and actuator fault model are first given. A sliding mode–based fault detection observer and a radial basis function neural networks–based fault estimation observer are designed to detect the time of actuator fault occurred and estimate the amplitude of unknown fault, respectively. On that basis, an active fault-tolerant control scheme is proposed to accommodate the effects of multiple actuator faults, and it guarantees that the state trajectory of attitude systems without actuator saturation converges to a neighborhood of the origin in finite time. Another active fault-tolerant control scheme is further proposed in actuator saturation constraint case; it ensures that all the closed-loop signals are finite time convergence. Finally, simulation results are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed fault-tolerant control approach.

In this article, an adaptive sliding mode control is used in the framework of fault tolerant control to mitigate the effects of actuator faults without requiring the actuator health information. Since unmanned aerial vehicles are being used in multiple fields such as military, surveillance, media, agriculture, communication and trading sector, therefore it is of vital importance to overcome the effects of actuator faults that can decline system performance and can even lead to some serious accidents. The proposed adaptive sliding mode control approach can handle actuator faults directly without requiring any faults information and adaptively adjusts controller gains to maintain acceptable level of performance. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive fault tolerant control scheme, it has been tested in simulations using non-linear Benchmark model of Octorotor system and its performance is compared with the optimal LQR control approach.
