In this article, a robust model-free trajectory tracking control strategy is developed for a quadrotor in the presence of external disturbances. The proposed strategy has an outer-inner-loop control structure. The outer loop controls the position with adaptive proportional derivative-sliding mode control and generates the desired attitude angles for the inner loop corresponding to the given position, velocity, and heading references, while the robust integral of the signum of the error method is applied to the inner loop to guarantee fast convergence of attitude angles. Asymptotic tracking of the three-dimensional trajectories is proven by the Lyapunov stability theory. The effectiveness of the proposed controller is demonstrated with the simulation results by comparing with other model-free quadrotor trajectory tracking controllers.
