Block Backstepping For Nonlinear Flight Control Law Design
نویسنده
چکیده
In this chapter we describe the block backstepping approach to flight control law design. Block backstepping is a Lyapunov based technique for controller design which is particularly well suited to the rigid body control problem where the main means of control is through the moments, which is the case in most aircraft. The resulting controller has semi-global (in the state space) stabilising properties and has a moderate number of parameters that can be used for tuning. We illustrate the theory by simulations of the ADMIRE model with a block backstepping controller in demanding manoeuvres such as high-alpha flight and high-rate velocity vector rolls.

Block Backstepping, NDI and Related Cascade Designs for Efficient Development of Nonlinear Flight Control Laws
A common feature of many aircraft configurations is that the actuation mainly effects the moments, and thereby the angular accelerations, whereas the desired normal acceleration is achieved by adjusting the location of the velocity vector in body coordinates. Thus, the main desired effects of the actuators appear after one integration, and if the actuators have dynamics the effect of the primar...
متن کاملSynthesis of nonlinear guidance laws for missiles with uncertain dynamics
This technical memorandum describes a nonlinear guidance law for a single-missile single-target engagement. The guidance relies on the concepts of Lyapunov stability and backstepping, which are constructive methods in nonlinear control theory. The design of the guidance law allows taking into account the nonlinear relative kinematics between the missile and the target, and ensuring ultimate bou...

In this paper, a novel problem of observer-based adaptive fuzzy fractional control for fractional order dynamic systems with commensurate orders is investigated; the control scheme is constructed by using the backstepping and adaptive technique. Dynamic surface control method is used to avoid the problem of “explosion of complexity” which is caused by backstepping design process. Fuzzy logic sy...
