Abstract

A sliding mode control (SMC) strategy is presented for a quadrotor-based hover system, which achieves asymptotic attitude regulation in the presence of electrical and physical constraints. A sliding mode observer is employed to estimate the angular velocities. In addition, the proposed control design incorporates the input voltage constraints inherent in practical systems. A rigorous Lyapunov-based analysis is provided to prove asymptotic regulation of the hover system attitude to a desired set point. Computer simulation results are also provided, which demonstrate the capability of the control law to achieve asymptotic attitude regulation when applied to the complete nonlinear system dynamics.
