This paper proposes a linear active disturbance rejection control (LADRC) scheme for a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with external disturbances based on adaptive control to address the attitude control problem. Firstly, the dynamic model of the quadrotor is established, and LADRC is used to control the altitude, yaw angle, pitch angle and roll angle of the quadrotor UAV affected by external disturbances, which enhances the anti-disturbance ability of the system. In addition, adaptive control is introduced to solve the problem of difficult parameter tuning in LADRC. Then, the stability of the system is demonstrated by Lyapunov theory. Finally, the simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme under external disturbances.

This paper proposes an attitude control scheme for the Dove flapping wing micro air vehicle in intermittent flapping and gliding flight. The Dove flapping wing micro air vehicle adopts intermittent flapping and gliding flight to make the wing movements more natural; this strategy also has the potential to reduce energy consumption. To implement this specific flight mode, this paper proposes a closed-loop active disturbance rejection control strategy to stabilize the attitude during the processes of flapping flight, transition and gliding flight. The active disturbance rejection control controller is composed of three parts: a tracking differentiator, a linear extended state observer and a nonlinear state error feedback controller. The tracking differentiator estimates the given target signal and the differential signal in real time. The extended state observer estimates the system states and system nonlinearity. Moreover, the bandwidth parameterization method is applied to determine the observer gains. The stability of the closed-loop system is verified using Lyapunov’s theorem. Several outdoor flight experiments have been conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control method, and the results show that the proposed method can guarantee the stability of intermittent flapping and gliding flight.

In this paper, an active disturbance rejection control is designed to improve the position tracking performance of an electro-hydraulic actuation system in the presence of parametric uncertainties, non-parametric uncertainties, and external disturbances as well. The disturbance observers (Dos) are proposed to estimate not only the matched lumped uncertainties but also mismatched disturbance. Without the velocity measurement, the unmeasurable angular velocity is robustly calculated based on the high-order Levant’s exact differentiator. These disturbances and angular velocity are integrated into the control design system based on the backstepping framework which guarantees high-accuracy tracking performance. The system stability analysis is analyzed by using the Lyapunov theory. Simulations based on an electro-hydraulic rotary actuator are conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control method.

Modern spacecraft demands from an attitude control system very high performance and accuracy, and many new features, such as disturbance rejection capability. The recently developed active disturbance rejection control technology is applied to the attitude control of spacecraft subject to disturbances and parametric uncertainties. Simulation and experiment show significant advantages of the proposed attitude controller over the controller resulting from conventional PID approach.

SummaryThis paper presents an advanced robust active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) for flexible link manipulator (FLM) to track desired trajectories in the joint space and minimize the link’s vibrations. It has been shown that the ADRC technique has a very good disturbance rejection capability. Both the internal dynamics and the external disturbances can be estimated and compensated in real time. The proposed robust ADRC control law is developed to solve the problems existing in the original version of the ADRC related to the disturbance estimation errors and the variation of the parameters. Indeed, these parameters cannot be included in the existing disturbances and then be estimated by the extended state observer. The proposed control law is based on the sliding mode technique, which considers the uncertainties in the control gains and disturbance estimation errors. Lyapunov theory is used to prove the closed-loop stability of the system. The proposed control strategy is simulated and tested experimentally on one FLM. The effect of the observer bandwidth on the system performance is simulated and studied to select the best values of the bandwidth frequency. The simulation and experimental results show that the proposed robust ADRC has better performance than the traditional ADRC.
