A UAV Longitudinal Control System Design Based on QFT

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, the basic principle and design procedure of the quantitative feedback theory (QFT) are summarized, then control system of a UAV is designed with the QFT theory. The QFT theory can solve the robust design problem of the UAV control system due to the model parameters uncertainty perfectly. And a method of robust design for UAV is put forward from engineering application perspective. Compared with traditional control method, the simulation result shows that the control system designed by the QFT theory not only has more perfect control effect but has significant value in the engineering application.
