Problems solved by technology

[0003] Although the structure of the quadrotor aircraft is simple, it is a multivariable, strongly coupled nonlinear system, and the interference between the body and the outside world and itself is very sensitive, which makes the attitude estimation and control system design of the aircraft very difficult.
The direction cosine method can obtain the full attitude, but it has a large amount of calculation and it is difficult to calculate in real time
The quaternion method has a small amount of calculation and is practical, but it cannot avoid the integral error problem accumulated by the gyroscope

Embodiment Construction

[0072] In order to make the technical scheme and design idea of ​​the present invention clearer, a detailed description will be given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0073] A method for acquiring the attitude of a quadrotor aircraft using a third-order approximate Picard quaternion, comprising the following steps:

[0074] Step 1) In order to verify the feasibility of the algorithm, an aircraft experiment platform is first established, and the hardware system of the platform is divided into three parts with three STM32F103VET6 control chips as the core.

[0075] The first part is the circuit design of the main controller and inertial navigation system. The main control chip uses STM32 for attitude acquisition and attitude control. The inertial navigation system collects the motion state information of the aircraft body as an important information basis for the control system. The feedback accuracy of the inertial navigation platform directly affects th...

Abstract

The invention discloses a tetra-rotor aircraft attitude obtaining method by use of a three-order approximation Picard quaternion. The method comprises the following steps: (1), according to the three-order approximation Picard quaternion, performing attitude solution so as to prevent a gyroscope from integration accumulative errors and reduce differential amplification of noise; and (2), performing Kalman filtering on an attitude angle obtained through the solution so as to effectively filter sensor measuring errors caused by vibration of a tetra-rotor aircraft body and obtain a more accurate attitude angle. The attitude solution method provided by the invention can perform accurate attitude estimation on a miniaturized tetra-rotor aircraft.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention is applied to the field of quadrotor aircraft attitude control, relates to the problem of quadrotor aircraft attitude control, especially how to avoid the integral accumulation error of the gyroscope, eliminate the sensor measurement error caused by the vibration of the quadrotor aircraft body, and realize an effective real-time control method. Background technique [0002] Quadcopter is the abbreviation of four-propeller non-coaxial multi-rotor aircraft. As a representative of non-coaxial multi-rotor aircraft, compared with fixed-wing UAVs, it has the advantages of simple structure, small size, strong concealment, high load, vertical take-off and landing, fixed-point hovering and low-speed flight. Dangerous special tasks, such as aerial photography, disaster site surveillance and assistance, low-altitude detectives and detection, etc., show extremely high research and application value in both the civilian and military fields. The quad...
