Abstract
In this paper, the decentralized uncertainty and disturbance estimator (UDE)-based robust region reaching controller is developed to drive a swarm of quadrotors with the full degrees-of-freedom, nonlinear, coupled and underactuated dynamics to track the trajectory of a moving target region while avoiding collisions among themselves. The backstepping technique is utilized to seamlessly fuse the UDE into the region reaching control framework with the function of estimating and compensating the model uncertainties and external disturbances. Simulation studies are carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method for achieving the moving target trajectory tracking even in the presence of external disturbances.
期刊介绍：
This international journal publishes both theoretical and application-oriented papers on various aspects of mechatronic systems, modelling, design, conventional and intelligent control, and intelligent systems. Application areas of mechatronics may include robotics, transportation, energy systems, manufacturing, sensors, actuators, and automation. Techniques of artificial intelligence may include soft computing (fuzzy logic, neural networks, genetic algorithms/evolutionary computing, probabilistic methods, etc.). Techniques may cover frequency and time domains, linear and nonlinear systems, and deterministic and stochastic processes. Hybrid techniques of mechatronics that combine conventional and intelligent methods are also included. First published in 1972, this journal originated with an emphasis on conventional control systems and computer-based applications. Subsequently, with rapid advances in the field and in view of the widespread interest and application of soft computing in control systems, this latter aspect was integrated into the journal. Now the area of mechatronics is included as the main focus. A unique feature of the journal is its pioneering role in bridging the gap between conventional systems and intelligent systems, with an equal emphasis on theory and practical applications, including system modelling, design and instrumentation. It appears four times per year.
