description This paper presents a generic robust controller that allows applications in various quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems effectively even when facing severe system uncertainties and unknown external disturbances. The fractional-order linear active disturbance rejection control (FOLADRC) scheme has combined the advantages of the fractional-order PID (FOPID) with the linear active disturbance rejection control (LADRC). Firstly, the structure of the FOLADRC-based quadrotor UAV is designed. Then, considering the difficulty of parameter tuning of FOLADRC and the demand for accuracy and rapidity of the controller, the improved sparrow search algorithm is applied. Finally, to illustrate the robustness and effectiveness of FOLADRC, the FOLADRC-based quadrotor UAV is firstly compared with PID and LADRC. The simulation and experiment results show that the FOLADRC method can suppress the influence of system uncertainties and external disturbance effectively, where the superiority compared to PID and LADRC has been demonstrated clearly.
