| dc.description.abstract | For the problem of fault tolerant trajectory tracking control for a large Flying-Wing (FW) aircraft with Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) model, a gain scheduled H ∞ controller is designed by dynamic output feedback. Robust synthesis of this gain scheduled H ∞ control is carried out by an affine Parameter Dependent Lyapunov Function (PDLF). The problem of trajectory tracking control for the LPV plant is transformed into solving an infinite number of linear matrix inequalities by the PDLF design, and the linear matrix inequalities are solved by convex optimization techniques. To overcome model uncertainties due to linearization and external disturbances, a radial basis function neural network disturbance observer is proposed, and to estimate actuator faults, an LPV fault estimator is designed. Furthermore, a composite controller is proposed to realize fault tolerant trajectory tracking control, which combines the LPV control with the fault estimator and disturbance observer, as well as an active-set based control allocation to avoiding actuator saturation. The approach is tested by simulation of two scenarios that show responses of the altitude, speed and heading angle to (i) unknown disturbances and (ii) actuator faults. The results show that the proposed neural network observer based LPV control has better performances for both disturbance rejecting and fault-tolerant trajectory tracking. | en_UK |
