| Abstract | This study presents two fault-tolerant control (FTC) schemes for an octorotor UAV. The FTC schemes are based on an linear parameter varying system representation and utilises a combination of sliding-mode ideas and control allocation (CA) in order to take full advantage of the available redundant rotors in the octorotor configuration. A detailed synthesis procedure for the design of the two FTC schemes in the presence of uncertainty, as well as faults/failures, is presented. The first scheme is based on an online CA methodology where knowledge of the rotor effectiveness level has been used to redistribute the control signals to the healthy rotors. The second scheme assumes that this information is not available and uses a fixed CA structure even in the event of faults/failures. Although the synthesis process for the two schemes is different and they use different strategies to redistribute the control signals when faults/failures occur, both schemes involved the same ‘baseline’ (sliding-mode) controller which does not need to be reconfigured. The difference is in the final physical control law where the CA matrix is defined. Simulation results on the full non-linear octorotor model are presented for the two different schemes in the presence of uncertainty, sensor noise as well as faults/failures. The simulation results for various fault/failure scenarios show no visible degradation in state tracking performance, highlighting the potential of the proposed schemes. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
