Abstract :
Presented are the results of a study of the application of linear quadratic optimal model following control design applied to a Bell 205 helicopter in hover. The objectives of the study were to achieve good performance and stability robustness via simulations using nominal and perturbed systems and to study the tuning procedure through extensive design analyses where effects on the closed loop system of variations in selected tuning parameters were considered.
