“…The results indicated its efficiency and robustness to track desired paths with high precision, stabilize the nonlinear dynamic system, and bound all signals. In the meantime, Hatamleh et al [134] conducted a comparative study based on three strategies: iterative bi-section shooting (IBSS), ANN, and Hybrid ANN-IBSS to determine the ambiguous parameters of a quadcopter model exposed to noise. The simulated results revealed that IBSS and ANN can evaluate the most unknown parameters even with noisy signals.…”

This paper presents a review of the various control strategies that have been conducted to address and resolve several challenges for a particular category of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), the emphasis of which is on the rotorcraft or rotary-wing systems. Initially, a brief overview of the important relevant definitions, configurations, components, advantages/disadvantages, and applications of the UAVs is first introduced in general, encompassing a wide spectrum of the flying machines. Subsequently, the focus is more on the two most common and versatile rotorcraft UAVs, namely, the twin-rotor and quadrotor systems. Starting with a brief background on the dual-rotor helicopter and a quadcopter, the full detailed mathematical dynamic model of each system is derived based on the Euler-Lagrange and Newton-Euler methods, considering a number of assumptions and considerations. Then, a state-of-the-art review of the diverse control strategies for controlling the rotorcraft systems with conceivable solutions when the systems are subjected to the different impediments is demonstrated. To counter some of these limitations and adverse operating/loading conditions in the UAVs, several innovative control techniques are particularly highlighted, and their performance are duly analyzed, discussed, and compared. The applied control techniques are deemed to produce a useful contribution to their successful implementation in the wake of varied constraints and demanding environments that result in a degree of robustness and efficacy. Some of the off-the-shelf developments in the rotorcraft systems for research and commercial applications are also presented.

“…In contrast to the aforementioned vehicle model-based estimations, the data-driven methods do not depend on the reference vehicle models, and they have been proven to possess the ability to avoid issues in vehicle dynamics estimation [129,130,131]. Among advanced data-driven approaches, artificial neural network (ANN)-based artificial intelligence (AI) is the most popular data-driven method for estimating vehicle state [129,130,131,132], the schematic of artificial neural network (ANN) estimation process is shown in Figure 6, which shows promising perspectives in various estimation applications such as energy estimation of ground vehicles [133], underwater vehicles [134], hypersonic vehicles [135], and unmanned aerial vehicles [136]. The main data-driven-based vehicle state estimations are summarized in Table 3.…”

In order to improve handling stability performance and active safety of a ground vehicle, a large number of advanced vehicle dynamics control systems—such as the direct yaw control system and active front steering system, and in particular the advanced driver assistance systems—towards connected and automated driving vehicles have recently been developed and applied. However, the practical effects and potential performance of vehicle active safety dynamics control systems heavily depend on real-time knowledge of fundamental vehicle state information, which is difficult to measure directly in a standard car because of both technical and economic reasons. This paper presents a comprehensive technical survey of the development and recent research advances in vehicle system dynamic state estimation. Different aspects of estimation strategies and methodologies in recent literature are classified into two main categories—the model-based estimation approach and the data-driven-based estimation approach. Each category is further divided into several sub-categories from the perspectives of estimation-oriented vehicle models, estimations, sensor configurations, and involved estimation techniques. The principal features of the most popular methodologies are summarized, and the pros and cons of these methodologies are also highlighted and discussed. Finally, future research directions in this field are provided.

“…Modeling and identification of spacecraft system using adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems is performed in (Hanafy, Al-Harthi, & Merabtine, 2014). Hatamleh et al (2015) have focused on estimating unknown dynamics model parameters of an unmanned quadrotor under presence of noisy feedback signals, where iterative bi-section shooting method, artificial neural network method and a hybrid approach are used.…”

In this research, based on heuristic optimization algorithms, three new strategies are developed for Aerodynamic Parameters Estimation (APE) of one pair ON-OFF actuator rolling airframe. In the 1st method namely EAM-PSO the aerodynamic parameters are directly estimated. While, the next two algorithms called EBM-PSO and SEBM-PSO are two-step strategies. In the 1st step the aerodynamic forces and moments are estimated, then after passing through a designed smoothing filter, in the 2nd step aerodynamic parameters are estimated. In EBM-PSO all the aerodynamic parameters are estimated at once by solving one optimization problem. In SEBM-PSO the APE is converted to solve four separate optimization problems. A modified particle swarm optimization algorithm is developed and used in estimation process. The performance of proposed algorithms is compared with that of state of the art algorithm EKF. The simulation results show that SEBM-PSO and EBM-PSO are better than EAM-PSO in term of accuracy and run time.
