Abstract The application field for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) technology and its adoption rate have been increasing steadily in the past years. Decreasing cost of commercial drones has enabled their use at a scale broader than ever before. However, increasing the complexity of UAVs and decreasing the cost, both contribute to a lack of implemented security measures and raise new security and safety concerns. For instance, the issue of implausible or tampered UAV sensor measurements is barely addressed in the current research literature and thus, requires more attention from the research community. The goal of this… More >

Abstract In this article, adaptive hybrid control scheme is proposed for controlling the position of a coaxial tri-rotor unmanned aerial system (UAS) in the presence of input saturation and external wind disturbance. The adaptive hybrid controller consists of model reference adaptive control with integral feedback (MRACI) and proportional integral derivative (PID) controller. The adaptive controller deals with the flight dynamics uncertainties and PID controller is used for tuning the gains of MRACI whereas the stability of system is verified by Lyapunov stability criterion. The integrator improves the order of the system thereby improving the convergence rate… More >
