What is it about?

This paper proposes a method combining dynamic inversion philosophy and robust control design. Emphasizing tuning the feed-forward term preserves robustness. The paper details this tuning procedure and presents results indicating stability, robustness, and handling quality requirements are met.

Why is it important?

Dynamic inversion is a powerful technique for achieving full performance of the design but also might cause some issues with stability and robustness perspectives. This paper proposes an approach for tuning a dynamic inversion based controller for enhancing the handling qualities while ensuring stability and robustness.

Perspectives

We wanted to take the dynamic inversion technique harmonized with robust controller design and improve the tuning to bring the design one step further. Because, especially for the high performance aircrafts handling quality plays a critical role in the overall design. Therefore, we wanted to approach to correlate the tuning of the feed forward terms for handling qualities while ensuring the stability with the feedbacks. Linear dynamic inversion enabled isolating nonlinearities during gain tuning, making the design applicable across a wide envelope.
