3.3 Identification of the plant
The dynamics is identified from forces applied by each legs to the measured acceleration of the top platform.
%% Name of the Simulink File mdl = 'drone_platform'; %% Input/Output definition clear io; io_i = 1; io(io_i) = linio([mdl, '/Dw'], 1, 'openinput'); io_i = io_i + 1; io(io_i) = linio([mdl, '/u'], 1, 'openinput'); io_i = io_i + 1; io(io_i) = linio([mdl, '/Inertial Sensor'], 1, 'openoutput'); io_i = io_i + 1; G = linearize(mdl, io); G.InputName = {'Dwx', 'Dwy', 'Dwz', 'Rwx', 'Rwy', 'Rwz', ... 'F1', 'F2', 'F3', 'F4', 'F5', 'F6'}; G.OutputName = {'Ax', 'Ay', 'Az', 'Arx', 'Ary', 'Arz'};
There are 24 states (6dof for the bottom platform + 6dof for the top platform).
size(G)
State-space model with 6 outputs, 12 inputs, and 24 states.
% G = G*blkdiag(inv(J), eye(6)); % G.InputName = {'Dw1', 'Dw2', 'Dw3', 'Dw4', 'Dw5', 'Dw6', ... % 'F1', 'F2', 'F3', 'F4', 'F5', 'F6'};
Thanks to the Jacobian, we compute the transfer functions in the frame of the legs and in an inertial frame.
Gx = G*blkdiag(eye(6), inv(J')); Gx.InputName = {'Dwx', 'Dwy', 'Dwz', 'Rwx', 'Rwy', 'Rwz', ... 'Fx', 'Fy', 'Fz', 'Mx', 'My', 'Mz'}; Gl = J*G; Gl.OutputName = {'A1', 'A2', 'A3', 'A4', 'A5', 'A6'};

3.5 Real Approximation of \(G\) at the decoupling frequency
Let’s compute a real approximation of the complex matrix \(H_1\) which corresponds to the the transfer function \(G_c(j\omega_c)\) from forces applied by the actuators to the measured acceleration of the top platform evaluated at the frequency \(\omega_c\).
wc = 2*pi*20; % Decoupling frequency [rad/s] Gc = G({'Ax', 'Ay', 'Az', 'Arx', 'Ary', 'Arz'}, ... {'F1', 'F2', 'F3', 'F4', 'F5', 'F6'}); % Transfer function to find a real approximation H1 = evalfr(Gc, j*wc);
The real approximation is computed as follows:
D = pinv(real(H1'*H1)); H1 = inv(D*real(H1'*diag(exp(j*angle(diag(H1*D*H1.'))/2))));
3.6 Verification of the decoupling using the “Gershgorin Radii”
First, the Singular Value Decomposition of \(H_1\) is performed: \[ H_1 = U \Sigma V^H \]
[U,S,V] = svd(H1);
Then, the “Gershgorin Radii” is computed for the plant \(G_c(s)\) and the “SVD Decoupled Plant” \(G_d(s)\): \[ G_d(s) = U^T G_c(s) V \]
This is computed over the following frequencies.
freqs = logspace(-2, 2, 1000); % [Hz]
Gershgorin Radii for the coupled plant:
Gr_coupled = zeros(length(freqs), size(Gc,2)); H = abs(squeeze(freqresp(Gc, freqs, 'Hz'))); for out_i = 1:size(Gc,2) Gr_coupled(:, out_i) = squeeze((sum(H(out_i,:,:)) - H(out_i,out_i,:))./H(out_i, out_i, :)); end
Gershgorin Radii for the decoupled plant using SVD:
Gd = U'*Gc*V; Gr_decoupled = zeros(length(freqs), size(Gd,2)); H = abs(squeeze(freqresp(Gd, freqs, 'Hz'))); for out_i = 1:size(Gd,2) Gr_decoupled(:, out_i) = squeeze((sum(H(out_i,:,:)) - H(out_i,out_i,:))./H(out_i, out_i, :)); end
Gershgorin Radii for the decoupled plant using the Jacobian:
Gj = Gc*inv(J'); Gr_jacobian = zeros(length(freqs), size(Gj,2)); H = abs(squeeze(freqresp(Gj, freqs, 'Hz'))); for out_i = 1:size(Gj,2) Gr_jacobian(:, out_i) = squeeze((sum(H(out_i,:,:)) - H(out_i,out_i,:))./H(out_i, out_i, :)); end

Let’s see the bode plot of the decoupled plant \(G_d(s)\). \[ G_d(s) = U^T G_c(s) V \]

3.8 Diagonal Controller
The controller \(K\) is a diagonal controller consisting a low pass filters with a crossover frequency \(\omega_c\) and a DC gain \(C_g\).
wc = 2*pi*0.1; % Crossover Frequency [rad/s] C_g = 50; % DC Gain K = eye(6)*C_g/(s+wc);
3.9 Centralized Control
The control diagram for the centralized control is shown below.
The controller \(K_c\) is “working” in an cartesian frame. The Jacobian is used to convert forces in the cartesian frame to forces applied by the actuators.
G_cen = feedback(G, inv(J')*K, [7:12], [1:6]);
3.10 SVD Control
The SVD control architecture is shown below. The matrices \(U\) and \(V\) are used to decoupled the plant \(G\).
SVD Control
G_svd = feedback(G, pinv(V')*K*pinv(U), [7:12], [1:6]);
3.11 Results
Let’s first verify the stability of the closed-loop systems:
isstable(G_cen)
ans = logical 1
isstable(G_svd)
ans = logical 1
The obtained transmissibility in Open-loop, for the centralized control as well as for the SVD control are shown in Figure 13.
