Abstract :
Automatic control of aircraft during landing is discussed and a new structure of automatic landing system (ALS) is designed using the dynamic inversion concept and proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers in conventional and fuzzy variants. Theoretical results are validated by numerical simulations in the absence or presence of wind shears and sensor errors.
