Abstract

There are various scenarios where Unmanned Aerial Vehicles are required to carry suspended loads. The most common of these scenarios include; military deployments, tree logging, fire fighting, package delivery, sensor survey (e.g. Magnetometer survey of the earth's magnetic field) and aerial side trimming. This work is aimed at obtaining a rest to rest trajectory for a UAV suspended load such that the load vibration is minimized. The 2D-model of the Quadcopter is used. The result from differential flatness is compared with that obtained from a closed loop control with input shaping. Based on the integral of the absolute value of the α swing rate of the pendulum, the three methods are compared and inferences are drawn.
