An M. Sc. Viva on Modeling, Control and Path Planning for a Quadcopter

The postgraduate student (Alaq Fallah Hassan) was granted an M. Sc. on 26/12/2017, for her thesis:

(Modeling, Control and Path Planning for a Quadcopter)

The committee consisted of:

1 - Dr. Omar Farouq Lutfy as president.

2-Dr. Osama Ali Awad as a member.

3-Dr. Bushra Kadhim Olaiwi is a member.

4-Dr. Laith Jasim Saud as Member and Supervisor.

The aim of the research is that Quadcopters (QCs) have received increasing interest due to their importance and increasing use in many vital applications.  QC system represents a challenge for researchers as it is characterized by being nonlinear, underactuated, and strongly coupled. In this thesis, six different control schemes are designed for full control of an unmanned QC that serves the final goal of QC position control and trajectory tracking.
