Abstract

The document contains a general theory towards the observation and optimal control of disturbed, target following aerospace systems. Disturbed, target following aerospace systems eire defined as aerospace systems that are designed to track a moving target system, while they are subjected to external, time-varying disturbances. The first five chapters of the document discuss state space modelling, optimal control theory, and the theory of (full order) observers. The remaining two chapters of the document apply these modem concepts to the design of control for disturbed, taxget following systems. Control is of the bi-modal type, using observer-generated estimates of the state error and of the external disturbance. The document contains a critical discussion of some relevant literature, together with numerous examples from the area of aerospace vehicle observation and control. The emphasis is on space vehicle applications.
