An Actuator Allocation Method for a Variable-Pitch Propeller System of Quadrotor-based UAVs

This paper presents a control allocation method for enhancing the attitude following performance and the energy efficiency of a variable-pitch propeller (VPP) system on quadrotor-based unmanned aerial vehicles. The VPP system was modeled according to the blade element momentum (BEM) theory, and an a...
