Nonlinear controller of quadcopters for agricultural monitoring

Abstract:

This work presents the construction and control of an autonomous quadcopter for applications of agriculture monitoring. Mainly the navigation system is based on a Field Programmable Gate Array, FPGA, Stabilization Target and a Global Positioning System, GPS, to solve different motion problems of a mobile robot. Also, this paper shows the development of a Human Machine Interface, HMI, between the ground station and the quadcopter. The HMI allows interaction both for simulation and/or experimentally of agricultural monitoring applications through control strategies tele-operated and autonomous flight. Finally, the performance of the proposed controller is shown through real experiments.
