  • Patent number: 11378983
    Abstract: Provided is a stable flight control method for a multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle based on finite-time neurodynamics, comprising the following implementation process: 1) acquiring real-time flight orientation and attitude data through airborne sensors, and analyzing and processing kinematic problems of the aerial vehicle through an airborne processor to establish a dynamics model of the aerial vehicle; 2) designing a finite-time varying-parameter convergence differential neural network solver according to a finite-time varying-parameter convergence differential neurodynamics design method; 3) solving output control parameters of motors of the aerial vehicle through the finite-time varying-parameter convergence differential neural network solver using the acquired real-time orientation and attitude data; and 4) transmitting results to speed regulators of the motors of the aerial vehicle to control the motion of the unmanned aerial vehicle.
