  • Abstract
    In this paper, we design a control law for a twin-rotor helicopter model with considering actuator constraints. The controller is composed of a state-dependent gain-scheduled feedback control law and a reference management device. We show that the proposed control law achieves higher tracking performance as compared to the standard constant feedback control law through experimental results.
