Abstract :
The linear quadratic regulator (LQR) control law is designed for the stabilization of the three Euler angles of a helicopter. The digital closed-loop simulation is conducted with the helicopter model, the actuator models and the designed controller in loop. The robust controller is programmed into a real-time software which is downloaded into the flight control computer. The hardware-in-loop simulation is performed to show the effectiveness of the controller.
