Popis: Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) equipped with a manipulator offer an additional flexibility and smart way to grasp the desired objects from inaccessible locations where the access of ground vehicles (GV) are not possible. In this research, we design an adaptive control based regulation, pole-placement and tracking (RST) control scheme for controlling the nonlinear behavior of an under-actuated quad rotor aerial vehicle. The overall performance of the system dealt by MIT rules. The aerial vehicle is equipped with a camera and a gripper that helps us to locate the wanted object from inaccessible location. The model of quad rotor UAV has six degrees of freedom (6-DOF) and the equipped gripper is about (2-DOF). For a successful flight operation UAV requires a reliable controller to stabilize the aerodynamic effects, disturbances that produced by the gripper. Due to aforementioned issue, design an adaptive RST controller, to control the dynamic behavior of the highly nonlinear complex system. Moreover, the effectiveness of the designed controller proven by applying computer-based simulation and it will verify experimentally. Lastly, it observes that the designed controller shows better robustness and good steady state performance to accomplish the given task.
