Abstract

In this paper, we propose an inverse optimal design method for the position control of a quadrotor. First, we derive the dynamics of a quadrotor using the Newton-Euler formulation. Second, we present the state transformation technique to derive the position dynamics from the kinematic and dynamic models of a quadrotor. Then, we present the nonlinear inverse optimal position control of a quadrotor. The stability analysis based on Lyapunov theorem shows that the proposed control method can realize a quadrotor system that is exponentially stabilized. In addition, we show the inverse optimality of the proposed inverse optimal controller for the position control of a quadrotor. The inverse optimality can simply and clearly be shown using the state transformation technique. Finally, we present some simulation results to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control method.
