Fuzzy Logic-Based Controller Design

Abstract

In this chapter, a fuzzy controller for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) flight dynamics is investigated. Fuzzy logic-based longitudinal and lateral controllers are designed. The fuzzy logic controller works well, even though no optimization technique is used to optimize the system and it was designed without dynamic model knowledge. In fuzzy logic controllers, a careful arrangement of membership functions may lead to better results. The stability of fuzzy controllers is also investigated. The effectiveness of different control methods for UAV flight control is compared in this chapter.
