Abstract
This paper discusses the problems associated with aerodynamic modeling, control and simulation of Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs). It is suggested that MRAC-based adaptive control methods are more suitable than the classical PID and Robust Control methods for MAVs. The salient features of conventional MRAC methods, and two significant and recent variants of these methods – the Modified Reference Model MRAC method and the L1 Adaptive Control method, are briefly described. These adaptive control methods are applied to the roll control of a typical MAV and the results are discussed. The Sliding Mode Control, which can be considered as a robust adaptive control method, is also implemented for pitch rate tracking of the MAV for the sake of comparison.
