Abstract
Aiming at the nonlinear and multiple disturbances in the multi-quadcopter UAV system, this paper proposes a leader–follower composite formation control strategy based on an improved super-twisted sliding mode controller (ISTSMC) and a finite-time extended state observer (FTESO). For the designed sliding mode control algorithm, the integral term’s switching function is replaced with a non-smooth term to reduce the vibration in the control, further improving the overall performance of the system. For external disturbances, the finite-time extended state observer achieves rapid and accurate observation of external disturbances. Finally, through formation control experiments, the reliability and superiority of the proposed composite formation controller (CFC) is validated.
