Study on Dynamic Pressure Control of Air-Breathing Hypersonic Vehicle

Abstract

To satisfy the strict requirements of dynamic pressure for air-breathing hypersonic vehicle during the initiation, a dynamic pressure control method based on the model reference sliding mode theory is designed. Firstly, the motion equation of the air-breathing hypersonic vehicle is built, and the dynamic pressure linearization model is established by the small perturbation method. Secondly, the control system, designed by the model reference sliding mode control theory, can quickly track the reference model. Finally, the six degrees of freedom simulation model is built and used for digital simulation. The simulation results show that the designed control system can accurately track the dynamic pressure command with great robustness.
