Over the past decade, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have received a significant
attention due to their diverse capabilities for non-combatant and military applications. The …

Quadrotors are Vertical Take-Off and Landing aerial vehicles with many potential
applications ranging from mapping to supporting rescue operations. This paper aims to …

Adaptive control methods are developed for stability and tracking control of flight systems in
the presence of parametric uncertainties. This paper offers a design technique of adaptive …

Parametric uncertainties and coupled nonlinear dynamics are inherent in quadrotor
configuration and infer adaptive nonlinear approaches to be used for flight control system …

In this paper, a 6-Degrees-of-Freedom (6-DOF) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) system with
external disturbance corresponding to sensor failure is considered. The control method is …

In this article, a finite-time control scheme is proposed for a quadrotor unmanned aerial
vehicle (UAV) with external disturbance. First, a finite-time disturbance observer is designed …

The paper focuses on mathematical modelling of a quadrotor and identification of
parameters used in presented models. There are several models of the quadrotor that can …

Quadrotor aircraft are drawing considerable attention for their high mobility and capacity to
perform tasks with complete autonomy, while minimizing the costs and risks involved with …

In this paper, a novel software package, called RoboPV, is introduced for autonomous aerial
monitoring of PV plants. RoboPV automatically performs aerial monitoring of PV plants, from …

The quadrotor is an ideal platform for testing control strategies because of its non-linearity
and under-actuated configuration, allowing researchers to evaluate and verify control …
