This paper proposes the method of synthesizing linear flight control systems by applying optimnl control theory associated with quadratic performance index. For this problem, the method of utilizing the root-square-locus technique has been developed by RYNASKI and others. In the present method, instead, the synthesis is done by evaluating quantitatively the performance of the transient responses with the aid of digital and analog computers. The design procedure is illustrated on an attitude-control system for the conventional aircraft and an automatic stabilization equipment for the VTOL aircraft. A comparison is made of the results obtained by classical root-locus method, the root-square-locus method and the present method. Thus, it is shown that the present method yields an excellent control system design.
