specific Embodiment approach 1

[0100] A compensation control method for a quadrotor UAV loaded with an unbalanced load based on center of gravity position identification, comprising the following steps:

[0101] Step 1: Establish the ground coordinate system (O g x g Y g Z g ) and body coordinate system (OXYZ), such as figure 1 As shown, the origin of the ground coordinate system O g Fixed to any point on the ground; X g Axis points to geographic east; Y g Axis points to geographic North Pole; Z g Point up along the local geographic vertical and align with the X g , Y gForm a right-handed Cartesian coordinate system. The coordinate origin O of the body coordinate system is the initial center of gravity; the X-axis points to the right of the body; the Y-axis is located on the body axis and points to the nose; the Z-axis points to the top of the body. The body coordinate system is a moving coordinate system, and its origin does not change with the offset of the center of gravity.

Abstract

The invention relates to a position attitude control method of a four-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle with unbalance loads, and belongs to the technical field of control of unmanned aerial vehicles, which aims at solving the problem of the unmanned aerial vehicle failing to continue to stably run due to unknown center of gravity and uncertainty in installation position in the process of loading unbalanced load. The position attitude control method comprises the following steps of firstly, deriving a kinematics model and a dynamics model before and after the unbalance load is loaded on the four-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle by coordinate conversion and dynamics analysis; obtaining the measuring data of a sensor in the flight process, utilizing a Kalman filtering method to obtain the high-precision and non-lagging flight state, and distinguishing the approximate location of center of gravity by the flight states; designing a position attitude controller and a position controller of the four-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle, and improving the controller by compensating the rotation speed of a propeller, so as to offset the additional rotary movement and linear movement due to location change of center of gravity. The position attitude control method is suitable for estimating the location of the center of gravity in the takeoff and hovering process of the four-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle, and establishing a compensation controller.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a position and attitude control method of a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle, belonging to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle control. Background technique [0002] Due to its simple structure and the ability to fly at low altitude, hover at a fixed point and take off and land vertically in a complex environment, the quadrotor aircraft has a good development prospect in terms of market application and academic research. The current development trend of quadrotor aircraft is gradual autonomy, which can accurately complete navigation and control tasks in complex environments, and ensure the success rate of flight tasks under uncertain interference. [0003] We hope to obtain a control method to keep the aircraft to complete the task stably and accurately under the unbalanced load with unknown loading center of gravity and uncertain installation position. In cargo transportation and material rescue in disaster areas,...
