Variable Sampling Rate Sampled Data Adaptive Control of Flexible Aerospace Vehicles

Abstract

Adaptive sample-data control of time-varying bending modes of a flexible airframe is analyzed. Adaptive control is achieved by variation of the sampling rate in conjunction with a fixed digital compensator. Means for the identification of the bending modes are conceived and analyzed. Simulation results of the adaptive control scheme are shown to verify the adaptive control technique.
