Abstract
Abstract Accurate and precise trajectory tracking is crucial for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to operate in disturbed environments. This paper presents a novel tracking hybrid controller for a quadrotor UAV that combines the robust adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. The ANFIS-PSO controller is implemented to govern the behavior of three degrees of freedom quadrotor UAV. The ANFIS controller allows controlling the movement of UAV to track a given trajectory in a 2D vertical plane. The PSO algorithm provides an automatic adjustment of the ANFIS parameters to reduce tracking error and improve the quality of the controller. The results showed perfect behavior for the control law to control a UAV trajectory tracking task. To show the effectiveness of the intelligent controller, simulation results are given to confirm the advantages of the proposed control method, compared with ANFIS and PID control methods.
