Abstract

Ducted fan UAV system is a typical multi-channel coupled nonlinear system. To implement reliable control of it, the structure and mathematical model of UAV must first be clarified. After the system model is established, it needs to be linearized and converted into a state-space expression before the controller can be designed. Thinking about controller design, we select the Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) method as the basic controller at first. According to simulation analysis, it is found that its dynamic performance is excellent, but it cannot effectively fight against the influence of the external disturbance. So, we improved direct adaptive controller and combined it with Kalman filter. The simulation results show that the controller realizes the function of anti-disturbance, and improves the robustness of the system.
