Abstract
A quad-copter or quad rotor system is an unmanned flying machine having four engines, which their thrust force is produced by four propellers. Its stable control is very important and has widely been studied. It is a typical example of a nonlinear system. So, it is difficult to get a desired control performance by conventional control algorithms. In this paper, we propose the design of a vectored sum defuzzification based fuzzy logic system for the hovering control of a quad-copter. We first summarize its dynamics and introduce a vectored sum defuzzification scheme. And then we design a vectored sum defuzzification based fuzzy logic system. for the hovering control of the quad-copter. Finally, in order to check the feasibility of the proposed system we present some simulation examples.
