| Abstract: | This article deals with the disturbance attenuation control of aircraft flying through wind shear via Linear Parameter Varying(LPV) modeling and control method. A Flight Dynamics Model(FDM) with wind shear effects considered was established in wind coordinate system. An LPV FDM was built up based on function substitution whose decomposing function was optimized by Genetic Algorithm(GA). The wind disturbance was explicitly included in the system matrix of LPV FDM. Taking wind disturbance as external uncertainties, robust LPV control method with the LPV FDM was put forward. Based on ride quality and flight safety requirements in wind disturbance, longitudinal and lateral output feedback robust LPV controllers were designed respectively,in which the scheduling flight states in LPV model were actually dependent parameters in LPV control. The results indicate that LPV FDM can reflect the instantaneous dynamics of nonlinear system especially at the boundary of aerodynamic envelope. Furthermore, the LPV FDM also can approach nonlinear FDM's response in wind disturbance special flight. Compared with a parameter-invariant LQR controller designed with a small-disturbance FDM, the LPV controllers show preferable robustness and stability for disturbance attenuation. |
