Research on Control Augmentation System for a Flying Wing Aircraft

Abstract:

Requirements of the longitudinal control augmentation system are presented through studying the 25^th China Civil Aviation Regulations and C* flight quality evaluation criterion; The C* control augmentation scheme commonly used in modern large airliners is adopted to design the control augmentation system due to the stability and handling problems for the flying wing aircraft; The particle swarm optimization algorithm is proposed due to the parameter-scheduling difficulties in the designed control augmentation system. Numerical simulation shows that the designed C* control augmentation scheme is feasible.
