Autonomous Aerial Refueling Modeling and Dynamic Inversion Adaptive Sliding Mode Control

Article Preview

Abstract:

A dynamic inversion adaptive sliding mode flight control method for autonomous aerial refueling (AAR) is approved in this paper. The drogue model and refueling aircraft 6-DOF nonlinear model is built. In order to improve the flight control precision and performance, the dynamic inversion control method is used to design the flight control law. Fuzzy adaptive control is combined with the sliding mode control is used to compensate the error of inversion, so the robustness and transient characteristic performance could be improved. The simulation results show that the AAR flight control has excellent control performance.
