Guardian Map Approach to Feasible Range of Static Stability Margin of Hypersonic Flight Vehicles with Input Saturation

الملخص EN

Static stability margin is a critical parameter in flight control design.

The feasible range of it must cover the uncertainty through the flight.

To reasonably identify the feasible range of static stability margin in advance, an approach based on guardian maps is proposed for flight control of hypersonic flight vehicles with input saturation.

First, the model of hypersonic flight vehicle (HFV) is established as a parametric plant.

Then, flying quality requirements for the closed-loop system are formulated as inequality constraints using guardian maps.

Moreover, by using linear matrix inequality, the saturation of elevators is taken into account in the integrated control of attitude control.

The prescribed minimum of static stability margin that ensures the flying quality of hypersonic flight vehicles with input saturation is obtained.

Furthermore, from the prospective of integrated control, it is shown that the feasible range of static stability margin can be enlarged by changing aerodynamic characteristics.

The effectiveness of the proposed approach is validated by numerical simulation.
