T-S fuzzy control for a quad-rotor UAV

This paper investigates the problem of the position and attitude control of quad-rotor UAV. A new simplified model which is more reasonable for some actual cases is derived. Based on the simplified model, a T-S fuzzy state feedback controller to stabilize the attitude of quad-rotor UAV is designed. Proposed control strategy can steer quad-rotor UAV flight with a desired acceleration. In addition, it can guarantee the assumption for simplifying quad-rotor model is reasonable during the flight. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the obtained theoretical results.
