Design of Control System for Aircraft Based on Receding Horizon Optimal Theory

For the forth generation fighter aircraft, with thrust vector is one of the key technique characters. In condition of High AOA (Angle of attack), the general effectors lose the maneuver efficiency or get poorly, so new type of control law must be found. This control law should not only overcome those problems but also satisfy requirements of the forth generation aircraft. So linearization method at Sampling Point and Receding Horizon Optimal (RHO) Control is brought forward. This algorithm can convergence problem of a class of affine nonlinear system. Simulation result shows that RHO control law can solve this problem perfectly and accord with the requirements of the forth generation fighter aircraft.
