Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of automatic control of unmanned aerial vehicles, and particularly relates to a four-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle stable tracking control method based on an instruction filtering backstepping method.
Background
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) refers to an Unmanned, autonomous or remotely operated Vehicle that utilizes aerodynamic force to carry the flight and can be recycled for reuse. It is capable of carrying either lethal or non-lethal loads, a hot spot when military weapons are being developed in the world today. Meanwhile, research, development, manufacture and application of the civil unmanned aerial vehicle industry are important marks for measuring the level of national technological innovation and high-end manufacturing industry. With the continuous reduction of the development and production cost of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the application range of the unmanned aerial vehicle is increasingly wide, the unmanned aerial vehicle has vigorous market demands and wide development prospects, and the unmanned aerial vehicle has increasingly prominent effect in national economic construction and can become an important industry for supporting the development of the national economy. Unmanned aerial vehicles can be divided into two types, fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles and rotor-wing unmanned aerial vehicles. Both types of drones rely on aerodynamic forces to provide the required forces and moments, but the mechanisms are completely different. The fixed wing drone relies on the high speed movement of the whole airframe relative to the air to obtain the required force and moment, so the obtained power is directly closely related to the movement speed of the airframe and the attitude of the airframe. Compare with it, the required power of rotor unmanned aerial vehicle and moment acquire through the rotation of the rotor of fixed mounting on the organism, and are irrelevant with organism current operating speed, state. The fixed wing unmanned aerial vehicle needs to have great speed, and is bulky when the during operation, and can not accomplish tasks such as hover, cruise, VTOL. Rotor unmanned aerial vehicle can solve above-mentioned problem effectively, at fields such as investigation, take photo by plane, and rotor unmanned aerial vehicle uses more and more extensively. Among the present rotor unmanned aerial vehicle most common, the deepest, the application range of research is four rotor unmanned aerial vehicle most extensively, and its advantage and characteristics include: the mechanical structure is simple, the control is convenient and flexible, the control performance is high, various actions can be realized in a small range, the cost is low, the flight performance is good, the reaction torque paddle does not need to be configured, the maneuvering capability is good, and the stable flight can be realized in a narrow space. Therefore, quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles are gaining more and more attention in mission execution in military or civilian fields such as search and rescue, aerial photography, exploration, remote monitoring, high-voltage line inspection and the like.
As is well known, the tracking control problem of the quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle directly determines the application effect in practice, so that the method has very important significance on the research of control.
The current situation of foreign research:

The hardware platform of the four-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle is provided with three independent sensors for measuring and estimating the state of the aircraft.
The current situation of domestic research:
although research on quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles is later than international in China, the applications of quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles in various fields are gradually increased in recent years. The four-rotor unmanned Aerial vehicle is promoted by setting up International Airborne Robot Competition (IARC) asia-tai race area, and mainly focuses on control theory and application research.
Except for colleges and universities, the development of quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles is greatly promoted by domestic commercial companies. Among them, well known are Dajiang innovation (DJI) and Jifei (Xaircraft). Currently, quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles produced by these commercial companies are mainly used in civil fields such as aerial photography and entertainment.
(1) Tianjin university fresh bin teaching team unmanned aerial vehicle part work: in order to realize the autonomous flight system of the small quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle, a flight control method based on vision is designed, and an embedded control framework flight test platform is built. The unmanned take-off mass of the four rotor wings is 1.4kg, and the effective load is 5N. In the control process, the optical flow information and the attitude angle information are fused for estimating the horizontal position information of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and the acquired horizontal position information is used as the proportional-derivative-integral control outer loop feedback information of the inner and outer loop structures.
Different from the traditional control architecture test platform based on the ground station, the flight system adopts a test platform with an embedded control architecture. The platform relies on an airborne embedded computer to perform optical flow calculation and motion state estimation, and an airborne flight controller is adopted to execute a control algorithm. The embedded control architecture engineering is high in implementation difficulty, and is more beneficial to realizing full-autonomous flight control of the quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle. Test results show that the design method achieves a good full-autonomous flight control effect.
The method comprises the steps of firstly improving a traditional visual SLAM (singular localization and mapping) algorithm by increasing the number of extracted feature points and optimizing key frame storage, improving the safety of flight control of the unmanned aerial vehicle, successfully overcoming the problems of visual SLAM image loss and position drift of an optical flow method, then fusing the position and 3-dimensional acceleration information of the unmanned aerial vehicle by adopting an EKF (extended Kalman filter), obtaining more accurate position information, simultaneously improving signal output frequency, finally designing a PID (proportional integral derivative) and E (proportional integral derivative) by using the position information of the unmanned aerial vehicle obtained by the method, and increasing the effectiveness of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and further avoiding the influence of the flight control algorithm on the unmanned aerial vehicle on the time control of the unmanned aerial vehicle, thereby realizing the effect of flight control of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and improving the flight control system.

(2) Partial research results of Nanjing aerospace university, the quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle and the GCS carry out two-way communication through wireless data transmission, so that the unmanned aerial vehicle can be subjected to parameter setting through the GCS, and the real-time monitoring of the flight state can be realized. The remote controller has two main functions, namely, the remote controller is used for providing a command gesture and a heading in a gesture control experiment. And secondly, the device is used as a control backup in an autonomous flight experiment, and once a fault occurs, the device can be switched to an attitude stabilization mode or a manual mode in time to ensure flight safety.
At present, the research of the four-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle enters the hot tide, and the related technology and theory achieve substantial progress. However, there are a number of critical issues that need to be addressed.
In the field of quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles, research problems at home and abroad are roughly divided into two types. One type concerns the problems encountered when the quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle flies in various real environments, and analyzes and optimizes the structural parameters of the quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle, so that the quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle can be better applied to the field of actual engineering. Another type focuses on theoretical research, and comprises establishing an accurate mathematical model of the quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle on the premise of considering characteristics such as aerodynamic force, aerodynamic interference and the like. On the basis, various control algorithms are researched, and stable tracking flight of the quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle is guaranteed.
A quad-rotor drone is a typical under-actuated system with only 4 inputs but 6 outputs, and therefore, quad-rotor drone systems often exhibit non-linearity, strong coupling, and susceptibility to interference during flight, and thus the requirements on the controller are extremely strict. The control algorithm is mainly used for improving the control precision of the unmanned aerial vehicle and improving robustness and response speed, so that the research on the control method has great significance on the development prospect of the unmanned aerial vehicle.
The control method can be classified into a linear method and a nonlinear method. The linear control method comprises the following steps: PID control, LQR control, method, etc. In the non-linear field, commonly used control algorithms are feedback linearization, sliding mode method, back step method, and the like.
Feedback linear control methods mainly use output feedback or other methods to transform a nonlinear system into a closed-loop linear system. Thereby applying a controller design method of a linear system to design a control scheme. However, this method depends particularly on the accuracy and precision of the model parameters, and the effect is greatly reduced if some links are not considered.
The sliding mode control is different from other controls in that the 'structure' of the system is not fixed, but can be purposefully changed continuously according to the current state of the system (such as deviation and each order derivative thereof) in a dynamic process, so that the system is forced to move according to the state track of a preset 'sliding mode'. The sliding mode can be designed and is irrelevant to the parameters and disturbance of an object, so that the sliding mode control has the advantages of quick response, insensitive corresponding parameter change and disturbance, no need of system online identification, simple physical realization and the like. But has the disadvantage that in addition to the jitter in the output of the system controller, factors such as speed, inertia, acceleration, switching profile, etc. need to be addressed as they approach the sliding mode profile.
The backstepping method divides the system into a plurality of subsystems, selects a proper Lyapunov function for each subsystem, designs a corresponding virtual control law, and finally obtains the actual control input of the system through multi-step deduction. The backstepping method perfectly combines the control rate solving process with the selection of the Lyapunov function. However, the traditional backstepping method has a design defect: the "compute inflation" problem. During the design process of each subsystem, the derivative of the virtual control needs to be conducted for a plurality of times. In the control input of the nth step, the nth derivative is required for the virtual control. With the increase of the order of the system, the derivation of the analytical expression of the virtual control derivative is difficult, even cannot be realized, and the problem limits the application of the backstepping method in the actual engineering.
Aiming at the problem of 'calculation expansion', jay A.Farrell and the like propose a class of instruction filtering backstepping method control, a pseudo control signal is estimated through a first-order filter or a second-order filter, and a compensation tracking error signal is introduced on the basis of a state tracking error. Wherein the compensated tracking error signal has similar properties as the state tracking of the conventional back-stepping method.

The specific operation process of the preferred embodiment is as follows: the application of the command-filtering backstepping control technique to quad-rotor flight control first considers the basic structural and dynamic characteristics of a quad-rotor system. As shown in fig. 1, the body of the quad-rotor aircraft is fixedly connected to a rigid crisscross structure, four independent motors drive the rotors to rotate to provide flight power, and the rotation speed of the rotors can be controlled by changing the rotation speed of the motors, so as to finally realize the control of the flight attitude and position of the aircraft. The four-rotor aircraft is a typical underactuated strong coupling system because the four-rotor aircraft has four drives, i.e. four input quantities, but has six degrees of freedom output quantities. Rotors on the same diagonal rotate in the same direction, while adjacent rotors rotate in opposite directions. The front rotor serves as the nose of the body, and the rear rotor serves as the tail of the body. The front rotor and the rear rotor rotate anticlockwise as a group of positive propellers, and the left rotor and the right rotor rotate clockwise as a group of negative propellers, so that the design can eliminate the self-reactive torque of the body. In this rotation mode, the main motion states that can be achieved by a quad-rotor aircraft are: vertical motion, pitch motion, roll motion, yaw motion, and the like.
The schematic diagram of the system control structure of the present invention is shown in fig. 2, and the attitude control is performed on the system, so that the flight quality is improved, and the specific steps are as follows.
Example 1:
performing stable tracking control on the system, and selecting the initial attitude angle of the four-rotor aircraft asThe ideal values of the attitude angles were all set to be sinusoidal signals with amplitude of 1, frequency of 0.05Hz, and experimental time of 25s.
The final pose tracking results of the system are shown in fig. 4 to 6. The attitude tracking method has the advantages that pitching, rolling and yawing can quickly and accurately track given attitude signals, and the system can simultaneously give consideration to steady-state performance and dynamic performance in the attitude tracking process.
Example 2:
and (5) carrying out disturbance test on the system. When the system is operated to 12s, external disturbance torque is added to the stable pitch channel, and the output response of the system is shown in fig. 7 to 9. Fig. 7 to 9 show that the attitude channel has a large overshoot during the disturbance, but can still track the ideal signal quickly and stably after the disturbance disappears.
The invention researches the attitude control problem of the four-rotor aircraft, designs the instruction filtering backstepping controller by utilizing the dynamic model information of the attitude system of the four-rotor aircraft and considering factors such as the internal uncertainty and the external disturbance of the model, and analyzes the stability of a closed-loop system. The embodiment result shows that the command filtering backstepping controller designed by the invention can effectively realize the attitude control of the four-rotor aircraft.
The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail, but the description is only for the preferred embodiments of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the present invention shall fall within the scope of the present invention.
