Abstract

This paper presents a distributed control algorithm for modular multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle (MMUAV) which is composed by several single-rotor modules. Specifically, to accommodate the characteristic of the MMUAV, the cascade proportional-integral-differential (CPID) control algorithm of position and attitude controllers is first developed. They make up the overall control as the comparison, where a 2-paradigm based method is proposed. Then, the distribu+ted control is introduced. Behind the position controller, distributed attitude controllers with the flight control declination angle based control allocation are exploited. Finally, simulation examples validate the proposed strategy.
