Abstract
In this study, an active disturbance rejection and predictive control strategy is presented to solve the trajectory tracking problem for an unmanned quadrotor helicopter with disturbances. The proposed control scheme is based on the quadrotor's dynamic model, where effects of wind gust are considered as additive disturbances on six degrees of freedom. The predictive controller solves the path following problem with extended state observers to estimate and compensate disturbances. The active disturbance rejection control scheme is used for the stabilisation of rotational movements. The suggested control structure is verified in simulation studies with the presence of external disturbances and parametric uncertainties. The proposed method improves the robustness for the modelling error and disturbances while performing a smooth tracking of the reference trajectory.
