Abstract
The dynamics of quadrotor UAV is described considering internal uncertainty and external disturbance. The control system of quadrotor UAV is divided into inner loop attitude control system and outer loop position control system, In order to solve the problem of underactuated character. Three virtual control variables are introduced to decouple the position dynamics. Three sliding mode disturbance observers (SMDOs) are designed to estimate the total disturbances in the position dynamics. Then three sliding mode controllers (SMCs) are designed to drive the trajectory tracking errors to zero asymptotically. The simulation example is carried out to test the effectiveness of SMDOs and SMCs. Simulation results validate that the designed SMDOs and SMCs provide both fast exact tracking capability and strong disturbance rejection capability for the quadrotor UAV.
