Preliminaries A rigid aircraft has 6 degrees of freedom comprising three translational coordinates and three rotational coordinates. Thus, it has 12 states: 3 space coordinates X,Y,Z and 3 angle coordinates , ,? ? ? roll, pitch and yaw as well as 6 corresponding velocities translational in body coordinates, , ,u v w , and , ,p q r . It is sometimes convenient to replace the translation velocity vector , ,u v w by its polar representation

, ,V ? ? where V is the speed (magnitude of the velocity vector), ? is the angle of attack and ? is the sideslip angle.

If a flat earth is assumed and variation of atmospheric density is ignored then the equations are invariant with respect to the X,Y,Z coordinates and heading ? . So we can ignore them, reducing the number of equations to 8. Furthermore, if the equations are linearized at some trim point they decouple into two smaller sets: a) the longitudinal dynamics consisting of the 4 states , , ,u w q ? (equivalently

, , ,V q? ? ) and b) the lateral dynamics consisting of the remaining 4 states , , ,v p r ? (equivalently, , , ,p r? ? ). Note that the longitudinal dynamics define the motion in the vertical plane.

Part A Consider the F-18 Longitudinal Dynamics:

Nomenclature: ? sideslip angle, r yaw rate, p roll rate, ? roll angle. We wish to design a compensator to improve yaw rate control performance. The standard

configuration of such a control system is shown the figure below and includes a ‘washout filter1.’ The rudder actuator dynamics need to be considered as well as shown.

Construct a set of state equations that includes the rudder actuator and the washout filter.

1. Choose the following set of closed loop poles: { }0.0051, 0.468, 0.279 0.628 , 0.279 0.628 , 1.106, 9.89j j? ? ? + ? ? ? ?

and find a state feedback controller to achieve those poles. 2. Compare the closed loop and open loop modes. Discuss how they have changed. 3. Design an observer for the system with poles 5 times faster than controller poles:

{ }0.0253, 2.34, 1.39 3.14 , 1.39 3.14 , 5.53, 49.5j j? ? ? + ? ? ? ? 4. Compute the compensator transfer function.

1 Turning an aircraft requires the pilot to coordinate rudder and aileron to establish a desired yaw rate and roll angle. The presence of the washout filter reduces the impact of the rudder on roll dynamics, thereby making the pilot’s job easier.
