| Popis: | This paper presents a robust position/attitude tracking control method for a fully-actuated hexarotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) based on Gaussian processes. Multirotor UAVs suffer from modelling errors due to their structure complexity and aerodynamical disturbances whose perfect mathematical formulation is intractable. To handle this issue, this paper incorporates a data-based learning technique with model-based control. The hexarotor UAV dynamical model, considering modelling errors and aerodynamic disturbances as unknown dynamics, is first derived. Gaussian process regression is next introduced as a learning method for the unknown dynamics, which provides probabilistic distributions of the predicted values. The predicted means are regarded as deterministic information and cancelled out by feedforward control inputs. The predicted variances are considered as the bounds of the model uncertainties with high probability, and a robust control method to ensure ultimate boundedness of the tracking control error is proposed for the uncertain system. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated via experiments with a self-developed hexarotor UAV testbed. |
