Flatness-Preserving Residual Learning for Real-Time Tight Quadrotor Formation Flight
Pei-An Hsieh, Fengjun Yang, Nikolai Matni, M. Ani Hsieh
Quadrotors flying in tight formations are severely affected by turbulent aerodynamic interactions, such as downwash, that can cause catastrophic collisions if left unmodeled. To compensate for these effects, we propose a physics-informed residual dynamics learning framework that…
