Actuator-Aware Observer Inputs for Cascade ADRC of Quadrotors Under Rotor Lag, Measurement Delay and Sensor Noise

Actuator-Aware Observer Inputs for Cascade ADRC of Quadrotors Under Rotor Lag, Measurement Delay and Sensor Noise

Summary

This paper proposes actuator-aware (AA) observer inputs for sampled cascade linear active disturbance rejection control (LADRC) of quadrotors.

Editorial context

This study presents simulation-based results for a quadrotor control architecture that incorporates actuator-aware observer inputs to address rotor lag, measurement delay, and sensor noise within a cascade ADRC framework.
