RL-based Control of UAS Subject to Significant Disturbance

Apr 10, 2025

This paper addresses the challenge of position and attitude control for unmanned aerial systems (UAS) under strong external disturbances. We propose a predictive reinforcement learning (RL) control method integrated with externally triggered signals. Unlike conventional reactive policies, our approach incorporates disturbance-correlated trigger signals as feedforward inputs, enabling the agent to anticipate disturbances and proactively compensate. We innovatively design a proximal policy optimization (PPO)-based deep RL framework that jointly models disturbances, senses trigger events, and conducts high-fidelity simulation training. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed predictive strategy significantly reduces positional deviation: in simulation, it achieves superior control accuracy and enhanced response proactiveness compared to both baseline controllers and reactive RL methods. To the best of our knowledge, this work is the first to realize trigger-signal-driven, feedforward disturbance compensation within an RL control paradigm.
