- Abstract
Visual servoing is a control method that utilizes image feedback to control robot motion, and it has been widely applied in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) motion control. However, due to field-of-view (FOV) constraints, visual servoing still faces challenges, such as easy target loss and low control efficiency. To address these issues, visual servoing control for UAVs based on the deep reinforcement learning (DRL) method is proposed, which dynamically adjusts the servo gain in real time to avoid target loss and improve control efficiency. Firstly, a Markov model of visual servoing control for a UAV under field-of-view constraints is established, which consists ofquintuplet and considers the improvement of the control efficiency. Secondly, an improved deep Q-network (DQN) algorithm with a target network and experience replay is designed to solve the Markov model. In addition, two independent agents are designed to adjust the linear and angular velocity servo gains in order to enhance the control performance, respectively. In the simulation environment, the effectiveness of the proposed method was verified using a monocular camera.
