Residual Wrench Certification and Margin-Aware Control Synthesis for Aerial Physical Interaction

arXiv:2609.38707v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We develop a task-relative framework for certifying residual wrench authority after hover and contact loading in multirotors with bounded actuators. Using convex geometry, we derive signed margins for prescribed convex reserves, including Euclidean balls and weighted ellipsoids. We obtain computable reserve certificates from actuator-interiority bounds to support slack-maximizing allocation. To preserve the required reserve, we propose command projection onto a tightened feasible set. We then connect the available reserve to structured gain synthesis and certify a local tracking region that respects actuator limits. Within this region, we establish nominal exponential convergence and robust ultimate boundedness. For the prescribed task and morphology family, we show that the optimized octarotor attains a larger margin than the optimized hexarotor at equal total thrust. We evaluate the proposed framework in closed-loop simulations of sustained rigid-wall contact using a fixed-geometry octarotor and a variable-tilt quadrotor with matched installed thrust. The quadrotor's local certificate admits a higher normalized push limit for the prescribed task family. In tests beyond the realizability boundaries, we observe the predicted loss of authority through rotor-thrust limits for the octarotor and tilt-servo limits for the quadrotor.
