Attitude control of UAV bicopter using adaptive LQG by Fahmizal, Hanung Adi Nugroho, Adha Imam Cahyadi, Igi Ardiyanto

“…There is a gain ρ in the LQG adaptive mechanism, this gain is influenced by the parameter σ which acts as a learning rate that produces a response to adapt to the response of the reference model. From the test results obtained when the value of σ is enlarged there is an increased overshoot condition/value but the root mean square error (RMSE) value decreases. …”
