Abstract
This paper presents an adaptive non-affine control scheme for the longitudinal short-period model of a generic hypersonic flight vehicle (HFV). Firstly, the non-affine nonlinear characteristics of the aerodynamic coefficients are analyzed, which have great influence on the flight dynamical behaviors. Secondly, without ignoring the non-affine nonlinear aerodynamics, a fuzzy sliding mode adaptive non-affine controller is designed. Under the existence of external disturbances and unmodeled dynamics, the controller can still ensure that the angle of attack tracks the desired signal robustly and asymptotically. Furthermore, the proposed controller does not require the exact bound values of the external disturbances and unmodeled dynamics, which is very important for hypersonic vehicles because the values usually cannot be obtained at hypersonic flight conditions. Finally, the simulation results are provided to illustrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
