TRAINABLE FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEM INVESTIGATION.
Abstract
The investigations reported herein are concerned with synthesis of adaptive control systems. It is assumed the plant motion over short time periods can be reasonably represented by constant coefficient ordinary differential equations of known form. The adaptive control systems considered are mainly characterized by: capabilities for adapting to general changes in plant dynamics; i.e., arbitrary changes in plant coefficients, and modest requirements on the arithmetical capabilities of the control computer. The report shows these objectives can be obtained by performing extensive computations during the control design phase and storing the solutions in a special manner. (Author)
