Abstract

This study demonstrates an effective systematic control design procedure by applying H∞ Loop-Shaping with a structured controller on an agile aerospace vehicle with a focus on automation. The gain-scheduled implementation is additionally described and tested with non-linear simulations, including a realistic moving point-hit scenario with guidance. The imposed robustness and performance requirements are met for most linear design points and for the non-linear simulations. The resulting autopilot design procedure is deemed effective in both the design procedure and implementation. It is subject to certain recommendations for improvement and extension.
