Abstract
In this paper, we propose an observed-based control for the PVTOLaircraft considering that the angular position is not measurable.The control strategy presented here, is robust with respect toobserver errors and takes into account constraints imposed by thenonlinear observer. The observer design is based on the assumptionthat the horizontal position is the only available measure. Wepresent simulation results in closed-loop when the controller usesthe estimated state provided by the observer.
