Popis: Quadrotor is a kind of popular unmanned aerial vehicle which obtains prime advantages in simple structure, vertically taking off and landing and hovering ability; hence it possesses wide application prospects in reconnaissance and rescue, geological exploration and video surveillance. However, attitude and position control of the quadrotor are challenging tasks because it is an under-actuated system with strong nonlinear, coupling and model uncertainty characteristics. In this paper, the dynamics model and the state space function of the micro-quadrotor are firstly established. Then, a cascade control scheme is proposed to decouple the control system and a multivariate RBF(Radial Basis Function) neural network control PID algorithm is proposed to realize robust control of the quadrotor. This algorithm is not only characterized by simple structure and easy implementation, but also capable of self-adaption and online learning. Simulation results show that the proposed control algorithm performs well in tracking and under disturbances and model uncertainties.
