Nonlinear Robust Missile Autopilot Design Using Successive Galerkin Approximation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The application of a new nonlinear robust control strategy to the design of missile autopilots is presented. The control approach described and demonstrated here is based upon the numerical solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs equation by Successive Galerkin Approximation. Using this approach, feedback controllers are computed by an iterative application of a numerical Galerkin-type PDE solver. Application of this approach to the design of a pitch-axis autopilot for a missile having uncertain pitch moment and lift force is described.

متن کاملNonlinear Optimal Control Techniques Applied to a Launch Vehicle Autopilot
This paper presents an application of the nonlinear optimal control techniques to the design of launch vehicle autopilots. The optimal control is given by the solution to the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation, which in this case cannot be solved explicity. A method based upon Successive Galerkin Approximation (SGA), is used to obtain an approximate optimal solution. Simulation results invo...
متن کاملNonlinear Design of 3-axes Autopilot for Short Range Skid-to-turn Surface-to-surface Homing Missiles
Traditionally, missile autopilots have been designed using linear control approaches with gain scheduling. Autopilot design is typically carried out in the frequency domain and the plant is linearized around various operating points on the trajectory. Moreover, three single axis autopilots are usually designed without considering the interaction among the motion axes, i.e., the autopilots in ea...

The nonlinearity and coupling of the missile dynamics can be linearized and decoupled by well known feedback linearization techniques. The fundamental problem of feedback linearization technique is not able to cater the model uncertainty. In accordance to this, a new robust nonlinear controller structure using feedback linearization technique is presented here. It linearizes the nonlinear dynam...
متن کاملMissile Longitudinal Autopilot Design Using A New Suboptimal Nonlinear Control Method
In this paper, a missile longitudinal autopilot is designed using a new nonlinear control synthesis technique (called theθ -D approximation). The particular D θ − methodology used in this paper is referred to as the D θ − 2 H design. The D θ − technique can achieve suboptimal solutions to a class of nonlinear optimal control problems in the sense that it solves the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB)...
