Abstract

Unmanned quadcopter transportation systems present extremely strong underactuated characteristics. Due to the unmodeled dynamics and unknown disturbances in practical flight, existing control schemes may lead to poor control effects or even control failure. This paper presents a robust tracking control for unmanned quadcopter transportation systems, which can achieve accurate trajectory tracking and eliminate unexpected payload swings effectively. Simulations are provided to verify the effectiveness of the control scheme against unknown uncertainties.
