Application of nonlinear H/sub /spl infin// control to autopilot design

This paper addresses the problems of nonlinear H/sub /spl infin// controller design for autopilot design. A systematic procedure to find Taylor series approximations to the solutions of the Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs (HJI) equation is proposed. The effectiveness of the proposed nonlinear H/sub /spl infin// control design approach is demonstrated by using the HAVE DASH II bank-to-turn missile autopilot as an example.
