Perception-Aware Perching on Powerlines with Multirotors
Julio L. Paneque, Jose Ramiro Martínez de Dios, Aníbal Ollero. Drew Hanover +3
Multirotor aerial robots are becoming widely used for the inspection of powerlines. To enable continuous, robust inspection without human intervention, the robots must be able to p…
Autonomous Quadrotor Flight despite Rotor Failure with Onboard Vision Sensors: Frames vs. Events
Sihao Sun, Giovanni Cioffi, Coen de Visser +1
Fault-tolerant control is crucial for safety-critical systems, such as quadrotors. State-of-art flight controllers can stabilize and control a quadrotor even when subjected to the…
Fast Fault Detection on a Quadrotor using Onboard Sensors and a Kalman Filter Approach
Bram Strack van Schijndel, Sihao Sun, Coen de Visser
This paper presents a novel method for fast and robust detection of actuator failures on quadrotors. The proposed algorithm has very little model dependency. A Kalman filter estima…
Upset Recovery Control for Quadrotors Subjected to a Complete Rotor Failure from Large Initial Disturbances
Sihao Sun, Matthias Baert, Bram Adriaan Strack van Schijndel +1
This study has developed a fault-tolerant controller that is able to recover a quadrotor from arbitrary initial orientations and angular velocities, despite the complete failure of…
Incremental Nonlinear Fault-Tolerant Control of a Quadrotor with Complete Loss of Two Opposing Rotors
Sihao Sun, Xuerui Wang, Qiping Chu +1
In order to further expand the flight envelope of quadrotors under actuator failures, we design a nonlinear sensor-based fault-tolerant controller to stabilize a quadrotor with fai…
