Inner Loop Control Systems Design for a Small Fixed-Wing UAV Using Metaheuristics
Keywords:
PID controller, Metaheuristic, Unmanned aerial vehicle flight control systemAbstract
This paper presents optimisation design of inner loop control systems design of a small fixed-wing UAV using metaheuristics. The control system is divided into longitudinal and lateral control sub-systems which are decoupled for simplify. The flight control optimisation problem is posted to find control gains in the control system in order to minimizing settling time, steady state error, and control effort. Six metaheuristic optimisers are used to solve the proposed problem and their performance are statistical investigated. The results demonstrate that the LSHADE algorithm proficiency is dominant over the other algorithms for the proposed optimisation design problem of inner loop control systems.
