Abstract:This paper presents a novel approach to combine trajectory optimization and gain scheduling for a nonlinear dynamic inversion controller, in order to optimize both guidance commands and control response. Therein, the guidance problem is formulated as an optimal control problem that also incorporates inner-loop dynamics based on a nonlinear dynamic inversion control block. At the same time, the gain profile for this control block is incorporated into the optimization problem as additional variables. As a result… 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.
