Human Physical Interaction based on UAV Cooperative Payload Transportation System using Adaptive Backstepping and FNTSMC

摘要

This paper presents a nonlinear control strategy for an aerial cooperative payload transportation system consisting of two quadrotor UAVs rigidly connected to a payload. The system includes human physical interaction facilitated by an admittance control. The proposed control framework integrates an adaptive Backstepping controller for the position subsystem and a Fast Nonsingular Terminal Sliding Mode Control (FNTSMC) for the attitude subsystem to ensure asymptotic stabilization. The admittance controller interprets the interaction forces from the human operator, generating reference trajectories for the position controller to ensure accurate tracking of the operator's guidance. The system aims to assist humans in payload transportation, providing both stability and responsiveness. The robustness and effectiveness of the proposed control scheme in maintaining system stability and performance under various conditions are presented.
