Abstract

This paper presents the application of the moving horizon states estimation (MHSE) method to estimate the states of nonlinear aircraft equation of motion from a dynamic maneuver’s flight test data. To determine the optimum solution of minimizing the performance index, a Quasi-Newton or gradient method is used. The present method also uses the Armijo’s line search gradient to guarantee the solution/estimation to converge faster to the global optimum estimate. The MHSE method is applied to flight test data of N250 PA-1 aircraft for parameter identification and flight path reconstruction. The result of estimation is also used to evaluate the accuracies of the measurement systems.
