Abstract
The problem of quadrotor attitude and position control is considered in the presence of generally lumped disturbances: external disturbances and model uncertainty. The improved active disturbance rejection controller (ADRC) for quadrotor trajectory tracking is proposed for compensating the lumped disturbances. Firstly, the improved sigmoid tracking differentiator (ISTD), combining improved Sigmoid function and sliding mode terminal attractor is proposed, which can accelerate the global convergence rate and effectively reduce the chattering. Secondly, a novel variable gain finite-time extended state observer (VGFESO) approach is proposed to effectively estimate the lumped disturbances, while the observation errors are convergent to zero in finite time. Then, a super-twisting sliding model controller (STWSMC) is utilized for tracking control of the desired position and attitude. Finally, the convergence of VGFESO and the closed-loop stability of the control system are proved. The results show that the convergence time of the proposed control scheme is the shortest, and the integral absolute error of improved ADRC is reduced from 2.64 to 0.91. The anti-disturbance capability of the proposed controller is fully illustrated when compared with ADRC and robust adaptive nonsingular fast terminal sliding-mode controller (RANFTSMC).
