Abstract

This work considers the anti-disturbance model reference L2-\(L_{\infty }\) control for the helicopter slung load system subject to unknown disturbances. Initially, a linear model is derived based on the nonlinear dynamics of a helicopter with slung load. The uncertainty and disturbances are jointly considered in the controller design. Then, by designing a disturbance observer and using robust L2-\(L_{\infty }\) control method, the state feedback control and dynamic output feedback control are respectively analyzed, and two sufficient conditions on deriving the observer gain and controller one are presented via the linear matrix inequality (LMI) form, which can guarantee the helicopter slung load system to asymptotically track the reference model with L2-\(L_{\infty }\) performance. Finally, some simulation results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
