Autopilot Implementation Synthesis via Processor-in-Loop Test

Missile autopilot design via a modified LPV synthesis technique

Robust control via Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) H∞ or μ techniques has been extensively studied in the past few years. In this area, the theory is now quite mature. However, its limitation to linear time-invariant systems often remains a weakness which may give rise to well-founded criticisms. This has enforced the need for an extension of standard H∞ synthesis techniques to the class of Linear ...

Gain-Scheduled Two-Loop Autopilot for an Aircraft

We present a new method to compute output gain-scheduled controllers for non-linear systems. We use structured H∞-control to pre-compute an optimal controller parametrization as a reference. We then propose three practical methods to implement a control law which has only an acceptable loss of performance with regard to the optimal reference law. Our method is demonstrated in longitudinal fligh...

Analysis and Design of Missile Two Loop Autopilot

In this paper, a flight path rate demand two loop autopilot in pitch plane called lateral autopilot is considered where the steady state gain of the autopilot system is non-unity .The present work is an attempt to achieve a unity steady state gain of the autopilot system which generates a flight path rate output for a flight path rate command. For this, a PI controller is introduced in the redu...

FPGA - in - the - Loop Implementation of an Adaptive Matrix Inversion Algorithmic Co - Processor : An Embedded Dual - Processor System

This article presents a comprehensive and efficient modelbased technique on how algorithms can be developed, synthesized, modeled, preverified and implemented on embedded processors platforms which consist of a personal computer and a field programmable gate array (FPGA). To illustrate the proposed technique a new adaptive matrix inversion algorithm is proposed and used. The algorithm is first ...
