Design and Simulation of Stabilized Flight Controller for UAVs

Abstract

This research paper is based on modeling and simulation of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) system using the equation of motion for stability and signal regulation. Two controllers have been used in sequence, Linear Quadratic Controller (LQR) and Proportional, Integral, Derivative (PID) for stability and signal regulation respectively. With the use of LQR, the system becomes more stable and less sensitive. This research work is divided into four parts i.e. mathematical modeling, design procedure of LQR and PID controllers, simulation and results. DATCOM files are imported by using datcom function. The results obtained from these simulations based on stability and signal regulation of UAV system.
