Introduction • Thanks to its special configuration, the 4 rotor helicopter allows to achieve many tasks in different fields. • Symmetry of the platform geometry • Low weight • Low cost • Autonomous flight Non linear control law Synthesis. • Complexity of the dynamical system • Presence of Perturbations due to the wind • Unavailability of some state variables
State vector: Gravity center coordinates Orientation angels: Yaw, Roll, Pitch. Angularvelocities / Helicopter frame Absolute velocities / Earth frame Aero dynamical forces Aero dynamical Momentums
System outputs: Desired outputs: Control laws: Back stepping controller synthesis We consider that all the state vector is measurable System of 4 equations 4 unknowns
: Difficult to measure Convergence of the tracking errors Convergence of observing errors System 4 equations 4 unknowns Back stepping controller synthesis with observer • We shall observe the absolute velocity vector • We consider that all the other parameters are measurable Where V is a LYAPUNOV candidate function • We include in the expression of V the observing errors to be cancelled
Tracking Trajectory : Initiales positions: Simulation and results • Simulation of a vertical helix trajectory flight in presence of perturbations (7 newton front wind blowing) • The controller gains are adjusted by doing intensive simulations
Tracking Errors for the BACKSTEPPING controller with Observer
Conclusion : This approach has shown : • Good robustness of the Controller • Good convergence of the couple controller observer • allows to decrease the number of the required sensors
