Abstract
This article addresses a novel multiphase-based real-time optimal slip ratio tracking control problem of an aircraft antiskid braking system (ABS) based on the second-order sliding-mode approach. First, a comprehensive dynamic model of an aircraft ABS is established, in which the coupling mechanism of the longitudinal, the vertical, and the pitching dynamics of the aircraft are thoroughly considered. Second, for the aircraft ABS with high nonlinearity, since the measurements of aircraft velocity and acceleration cannot be transmitted to the aircraft ABS in time, the second-order sliding-mode differentiator (SMD) will be designed to estimate them simultaneously. Then, the optimal slip ratio signal, which formulates the maximum friction coefficient, will be updated based on the static friction coefficient model with real-time measured and estimated signals. Furthermore, a novel multiphase-based slip ratio regulation algorithm integrated with the second-order sliding-mode control strategy is proposed on the basis of runway characteristics to track the optimal slip ratio signal, which can not only stop the aircraft faster but prevent the mainwheel from final locking. Finally, the simulation results are presented to demonstrate that the aircraft antiskid braking algorithm proposed in this article can effectively prevent the mainwheel from locking under different runway conditions, and significantly improve the braking efficiency.
