Gust disturbance not only influences the ride quality and the precision of the weapon delivery, but also affects to the structural fatigue load and the strength. The method of an optimal control law to suppress the gust disturbance for helicopters is presented. The optimization requires the minimization of the vertical overload at the pilot′s seat, the attitude variation and the control energy consumption under the gust disturbance. Based on the original control system, the new system can be easily realized by adding a vertical speed feedback passage. In order to develop the real-time operational flight control system, the optimized control law is written in C language. The hybrid simulations prove that the performance of gust response alleviation and the efficiency of digitalization are satisfactory.展开更多

Instead of approximating thc cntire nonlinear system with the neural network (NN), only the un-modeled part left over after the lincarization is approximated. Compared with the conventional linear observer, the observer provides more accurate estimation of the state. The state estimation error is proved to asymptotically approach zero with the Lyapunov method. The simulation result shows that the proposed observer scheme is effective and has a potential application ability in the fault detection and identification (FDI), and the state estimation.展开更多
