Design and Implementation of a Neural Intelligent Controller and a Hybrid PD Controller for Quadrotor

Quadrotor is a Flying robot which can fly vertically and has a simple structure. Because of nonlinear dynamics of the system, Stability of the control process has an important role in this robot. In this paper, a neural controller is designed to stabilize the quadrotor. The neural controller is used to stabilize the attitude of the quadrotor. We first designed a PD controller using Ziegler Nichols method, then an online learner neural controller is trained for tuning the parameters of this PD controller. To verify these controllers first a simulation performed in the Simulink environment of the Matlab. In addition to simulation we have practically implemented these control methods on a Quadrotor test bench. Practical implementation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the presented method.
