Adaptive tracking control of an unmanned aerial system based on a dynamic neural-fuzzy disturbance estimator.

The main goal of this study is developing an adaptive controller which can solve the trajectory tracking for a class of quadcopter unmanned aerial system (UAS), namely a quadrotor. The control design introduces a new paradigm for adaptive controllers based on the implementation of a set of differential neural networks (DNNs) in the consequence section of a Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy inference system. This dynamic fuzzy inference structure was used to approximate the UAS description.
