Abstract
By considering the under-actuated characteristics of the quadcopter suspension transportation system and the external disturbance, the effective tracking control of the quadrotor transportation system faces great difficulties and challenges. An adaptive hierarchical sliding mode control (HSMC) scheme based on fixed-time sliding mode disturbance observer (FTSMDO) is developed for the anti-disturbance tracking control of under-actuated quadcopter suspension transportation system (UQSTS). The HSMC is used to deal with the under-actuated characteristics of the UQSTS, and the external disturbance is estimated by designing the FTSMDO. Synchronously, the disturbance estimation error is processed by designing the adaptive law. The stability analysis based on Lyapunov is applied to verify the uniform ultimate boundedness of the closed-loop system. Finally, the comparison of physical experiment upshots shows the effectiveness and potential of the proposed new control techniques.
