Abstract: | |
In this paper, it is proposed to implement a given controller using observer-based structures in order to estimate or to monitor some unmeasured plant states or external disturbances. Such a monitoring can be used to perform in-line or off-line analysis (supervising controller modes, capitalizing flight data to improve disturbance modelling, ...). This observer based structure must involve a judicious onboard model selected to be representative of the physical phenomenon one want to monitor. This principle is applied to an aircraft longitudinal flight control law to monitor wind disturbances and to estimate the angle-of-attack. Copyright © 2007 IFAC. |
