Constrained Control of Nonlinear Systems: The Explicit Reference Governor and its Application to Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

This dissertation introduces the Explicit Reference Governor: a simple and systematic add-on control unit that provides constraint handling capabilities to any pre-stabilized nonlinear system by suitably manipulating its applied reference. The main innovation of the proposed framework is that constr...
