Abstract :
This paper is concerned with the robust H2 tracking control problem for the yaw control of a small-scaled helicopter with time-varying uncertainty. The proposed controller incorporates an adaptation mechanism, which improves the performance of system compared with conventional robust controller with a fixed gain. Simulation results of the yaw control of a small-scaled helicopter mounted on an experiment platform have demonstrated the theoretic results.
