Active disturbance rejection controller(ADRC)uses tracking-differentiator(TD)to solve the contradiction between the overshoot and the rapid nature.Fractional order proportion integral derivative(PID)controller improves the control quality and expands the stable region of the system parameters.ADRC fractional order(ADRFO)PID controller is designed by combining ADRC with the fractional order PID and applied to reentry attitude control of hypersonic vehicle.Simulation results show that ADRFO PID controller has better control effect and greater stable region for the strong nonlinear model of hypersonic flight vehicle under the influence of external disturbance,and has stronger robustness against the perturbation in system parameters.
