Robust attitude control of quadrotor using sliding mode

Attitude and altitude control of quadrotor is investigated in this paper. Stable sliding surfaces are used for devising robust control for roll, pitch, yaw motion and altitude. Gao's power rate reaching law is used to devise proposed sliding mode controllers. The robustness of the controllers is verified in simulation. The method is validated in MATLAB simulation. The proposed controller is compared with the PID control.
