Abstract:In this paper, an integrated pitch/yaw autopilot for the acceleration control of the projectile with rotating canards is proposed based on the linear quadratic control methodology. The pitch/yaw motions of such munitions are highly coupled so that it is not easy to control both pitch and yaw accelerations. As a remedy, we propose the integrated pitch/yaw output feedback structures based on the classical three-loop topology. Then, the optimal control gains are determined by solving the linear quadratic regulato… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
