Research on design method of double-loop electric servo loading system with high-frequency band based on H∞ control strategy

Abstract

In the hardware-in-the-loop simulation, the goal of electric loading is to realize the accurate tracking of the torque signal and test the performance of the aircraft actuator system. For some high dynamic aircraft, it is necessary to reduce the influence of the surplus torque to increase the system frequency band. This paper introduces a new electric loading system which adopts a double-loop servo motor as the torque loading mechanism. It applies two loops to track the position of the rudder and the aerodynamic load spectrum respectively. For the purpose of reducing the disturbance between two loops of the scheme, a two-DOF H∞ robust controller is designed, which improves the robustness of the system effectively. The simulation results show that the new system increases the upper limit of 25 Hz frequency band of the traditional single-loop system with PID control to the maximum of 40 Hz. The double-loop system thereby meets the technical requirements of the hardware-in-the-loop simulation experiment for high dynamic aircrafts.

Improved slide session border controlling and parallel multi-actuator servo loading for high energy loading process of trailing edge flap in aircraft high density energy systems

“…The high energy follow-up loading method is generally divided into two categories: the first type is the passive compensation method, and the automatic compensation of the loading point's displacement change is realized by the mechanism. In that test, there is only one active control point, which is the loading point of the test load [9,10]. The loading point's displacement change is realized by the mechanism which does not contain an active control point.…”
