Abstract

A flying drone generates vibrations in a great variety of frequencies, and it requires a gimbal system stabilization loop design in order to obtain clean and accurate image from the camera attached to the drone under this environment. The gimbal system for drone comprises the structure that supports the camera module and the stabilization loop which follows the precise angle while blocking the vibration from outside. This study developed a dynamic model for one axis for the stabilization loop design of a gimbal system for drones and applied classical PID controller and intelligent PID controller. The Stabilization loop design was developed by using MATLAB/Simulink and compared the performance of each controller through simulation. Especially, the intelligent PID controller can be designed almost without the dynamic model and it demonstrates that the angle can be followed without readjusting the parameters of the controller even when the characteristics of the model changes.

비행중인 드론에는 매우 다양한 주파수 성분의 진동이 발생되고, 이러한 진동 환경에서 드론에 장착된 카메라로부터 깨끗하고 안정된 영상을 획득하기 위해서는 짐발 시스템의 안정화 설계가 필요하다. 짐발 시스템은 카메라 모듈을 지지하는 구조와 외부로 부터의 진동을 차단하면서 정확한 각도를 추종하는 안정화기로 구성된다. 본 논문에서는 짐발시스템의 한 축에 대한 동역학 모델을 세우고 이에 대한 고전적인 PID제어기를 적용하여 본다. 또한 시스템에 대한 동적 모델 없이 Intelligent-PID 제어기를 설계하고, 두 제어기의 성능을 MATLAB/Simulink을 이용한 시뮬레이션으로 비교하여 본다. 이들을 통하여, Intelligent-PID 제어기는 동역학 모델을 거의 필요로 하지 않고도 설계가 가능하고, 모델의 특성이 변하여도 제어기의 파라미터를 재조정할 필요가 없이 진동을 차단하고 각도를 추종 할 수 있는 제어강인성을 보인다.
