This review aims to provide an overview on aerial manipulation of SRURSs nowadays and promote relative research in the future. In the past decade, aerial manipulation of SRURSs has attracted the interest of researchers globally. This paper provides a literature review of the last 10 years(2008–2017) on SRURSs, and details achievements and challenges. Firstly, the definition, current state, development, classification, and challenges of SRURSs are introduced. Then, related papers are organized into two topical categories: mechanical structure design, and modeling and control. Following this, research groups involved in SRURS research and their major achievements are summarized and classified in the form of tables. The research groups are introduced in detail from seven parts. Finally, trends and challenges are compiled and presented to serve as a resource for researchers interested in aerial manipulation of SRURSs. The problem,trends, and challenges are described from three aspects. Conclusions of the paper are presented,and the future of SRURSs is discussed to enable further research interests.展开更多

With the analysis of flight characteristics, a linear dynamic model is constructed by the small perturbation theory. Using the micro guidance navigation and control module, the system can record the control signals of servos, the state infor- mation of attitude and velocity information in sequence. After the data preprocessing, an adaptive ant colony algorithm is proposed to get optimal parameters of the dynamic model. With the adaptive adjustment of the pheromone in the selection process, the proposed model identification method can escape from local minima traps and get the optimal solution quickly. Performance analysis and experiments are conducted to validate the effectiveness of the identified dynamic model. Compared with real flight data, the identified model generated by the proposed method has a better performance than the model generated by the adaptive genetic algorithm. Based on the identified dynamic model, the small unmanned aerial rotorcraft can generate suitable control parameters to realize stable hovering, turning, and straight flight.展开更多
