  • Abstract
    This paper discusses the Intelligent Gain Scheduled PD technique to autonomously control the attitude of the Quad Copter. This paper would focus on two aspects of the autonomous quad-copter i.e. Attitude Control and Trajectory Following. The autonomous control of a quad-copter is a challenge due to its non-linear dynamics and environmental perturbations. The aim of the investigation is to study a Fuzzy Takagi-Sugeno method used to control the position and the yaw angle of the quad-copter and to compare the simulated results with the conventional PD Controller.
