Design of the Nonlinear Structure Adaptive Model Inversion Flight Control System

Abstract

The advanced aircraft has those technological characteristics: stealth, supersonic cruise, super maneuverability, multi-target attack, multi-role, high load, long range cruise, integrated avionics, short takeoffs and vertical landings. These characteristics need multi-subsystem integration in the advanced aircraft. In order to meet the need of advance aircraft, the nonlinear control system is necessary. In this paper, the nonlinear structure adaptive model inversion system was first used for the nonlinear control problem of super-maneuver aircraft. The sufficient and necessary condition of the control law was analyzed. Finally the results of the height-angle maneuver simulation show that the designed control system has good performance.
