Mixed Sensitivity Servo Control of Active Control Systems
Abstract
:1. Introduction
- (1)
- The traditional flight control system has unstable switching between force and position control. The system control mode should be switched according to the pilot’s flying habits, however, the two systems, namely the position control system and the torque control system, are coupled with each other and influence each other, resulting in unstable switching between the two systems.
- (2)
- The control system has parameter uncertainties, such as the mass of the simulated side-stick, system inertia, system damping and friction, and the uncertainty of unmodeled dynamics; the system is perturbed by external environmental parameters, such as noise and disturbance torque.
- (1)
- This paper proposes the design principle of the side-stick in an artificial feel system.
- (2)
- The servo characteristics of the system are analyzed, and the position closed-loop system and the torque closed-loop system are preliminarily designed.
- (3)
- This paper proposes a robust control method for active side-stick manipulation based on .

- Counters and timers are NI-9411. The NI-9215 counter input module has 8 channels and can directly collect digital quantity. Users can configure it to be differential or single-ended.

6. Summary and Conclusions
- (1)
- Different to traditional fly-by-wire technology, this paper proposes the design principle of the side-stick in an artificial feel system. The ACS was divided into position system and torque system for modeling and analysis, respectively. The two subsystems were coupled to form a comprehensive system, and the transfer functions of the command channel and the interference channel were solved. The comprehensive model of the subsystem and the coupling state was simulated and analyzed.
- (2)
- The servo characteristics of the system were analyzed, and the position closed-loop system and the torque closed-loop system were preliminarily designed. At the same time, the factors that cause the instability of the system were discussed, and the influences of inertia, clearance, damping and stiffness on the system were also discussed. The causes of the interference torque were studied. The structure invariance principle was adopted to compensate for the torque closed-loop system, and the software adjustment strategy was used to compensate for the torque generated by the interference.
- (3)
- This paper proposes a robust control method for active side-stick manipulation based on . The designed torque closed-loop system has uncertainty and external perturbation, which is in line with the applicable environment of the robust controller. It proved that the effect of robust control on suppressing external disturbance of the system was good. Compared with dynamic compensation, the effect of suppressing disturbance is more obvious, and the robustness of the system is significantly enhanced.
