Design and Performance Verification of L1 Adaptive Flight Control Law Considering the Change of Center of Gravity for Unmanned Tailless Aircraft; [무인 무미익 항공기의 무게중심 변화를 고려한 L1 적응제어 비행제어 법칙 설계 및 성능 검증]

초록

Tailless aircraft have advantages of low visibility compared to conventional aircraft, but drawback of poor stability as well which makes designing controller difficult. The controller design is more difficult, especially when the center of gravity moves due to store release or fuel consumption during flight. In this paper, an L1 adaptive controller is proposed as a way to overcome these problems. The reliability and performance of the controllers were verified by non-linear simulations. RPV Flying Quality Design criteria were used for design criteria. Using the simulation, it is shown that the adaptive controller maintains stability of the unmanned aircraft for sudden large change in the inertial properties. It is also shown that the calculation burden can be reduced when it is used with the gain scheduling method. © 2019 The Korean Society for Aeronautical and Space Sciences.
