H-inf robust controller for autonomous helicopter hovering control

Among the major challenges associated with the deployment of autonomous small scale helicopters in civilian UAV applications is the requirement for reliable control scheme. This is due not only to the inherent complexity of the helicopter dynamics, but to the vulnerability of the system to various u...
