Quadrotor Trajectory Tracking Under Output Delay: Strategies and Challenges

EasyChair Preprint 13201

Abstract

Quadrotors have become increasingly prevalent in various applications, from aerial photography to surveillance and even package delivery. However, their effective trajectory tracking can be hindered by output delays, which are inherent in the control systems of these aerial vehicles. This research paper investigates the strategies and challenges associated with quadrotor trajectory tracking under output delay. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature, this paper identifies various approaches for mitigating the effects of output delay and discusses the technical and practical challenges encountered in implementing these strategies. Furthermore, this paper proposes potential solutions and directions for future research to improve the trajectory tracking performance of quadrotors in the presence of output delay.
