“…Total time-delay in a flight control system may consist of sampling delays, computation delays, actuator delays, sensor delays and delays occurring due to the approximation of high order dynamics. [6][7][8] There are many works in the literature presenting controller designs that address the time-delay in the flight control system. In terms of advanced approaches, the use of H 2 controllers, 9 H ∞ controllers, 10 discrete time observer based controllers, 11,12 gainscheduled state feedback controllers 13 and Smith Predictors integrated with adaptive controllers 14 can be mentioned.…”

This paper presents an application of the Adaptive Posicast Controller (APC) to flight control. The APC is an adaptive controller with explicit delay compensation built upon the ideas of the classical Smith Predictor, finite spectrum assignment (FSA) and adaptive control. Simulation results are reported where APC is applied to control the longitudinal dynamics of a jet transport aircraft. These results demonstrate improved performance compared to conventional model reference adaptive controller (MRAC) and effective handling of time delays and uncertainties.
