Abstract
In this paper, we deal with a Bicopter drone that has two thrusters and two tilting servos. Both the position and attitude dynamics of Bicopter are globally expressed on the Special Euclidean group SE3. A simple control allocation method is proposed to map between the control wrench and actuator inputs for the Bicopter. A geometric nonlinear attitude and altitude tracking controller is developed for the Bicopter and the asymptotic stability analysis is performed using the Lyapunov method for the closed-loop nonlinear system. The performance of the proposed altitude and attitude stabilization controller is validated through experimental hardware developed in-house. The attitude controller performance is validated through simulations and shown to be comparable against an linear matrix inequality-based control law.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
