This article studies the tracking control of a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) under time-varying external disturbances. An event-triggered sliding mode control (SMC) strategy is proposed by introducing a new triggering condition form of desired trajectory, quadrotor position, and velocity. In the sense of Lyapunov theory, the stability of the entire closed-loop control system is analyzed,...
