Fixed-Time Dynamic Landing of Quadrotors using Adaptive Unscented Kalman Filtering and Nonlinear Model Predictive Control
Mohammadreza Izadi, Zeinab Shayan, Steven Waslander +1
This paper introduces an estimation and control framework for dynamic landing of multi-rotor uncrewed aerial vehicles on moving platforms. The proposed method integrates nonlinear…
Robust Integrated Planning and Control for Quadrotors in Dynamic Environments via NMPC with CBF Penalties
Zeinab Shayan, Mohammadreza Izadi, Reza Faieghi
This paper presents a new robust integrated planning and control (IPC) strategy for multirotor uncrewed aerial vehicles. We propose a nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) form…
Quaternion-Based Sliding Mode Control for Six Degrees of Freedom Flight Control of Quadrotors
Amin Yazdanshenas, Reza Faieghi
Despite extensive research on sliding mode control (SMC) design for quadrotors, the existing approaches suffer from certain limitations. Euler angle-based SMC formulations suffer f…
Gimballed Rotor Mechanism for Omnidirectional Quadrotors
J. Cristobal, A. Z. Zain Aldeen, M. Izadi +1
This paper presents the design of a gimballed rotor mechanism as a modular and efficient solution for constructing omnidirectional quadrotors. Unlike conventional quadrotors, which…
Robust and Agile Quadrotor Flight via Adaptive Unwinding-Free Quaternion Sliding Mode Control
Amin Yazdanshenas, Reza Faieghi
