Fault-Tolerant Flight Control System Design via ASPR based Adaptive Output Feedback Control with Output Predictive Feedforward

In this paper, we consider designing Fault-Tolerant Flight Control (FTFC) system based on the almost strictly positive real (ASPR) based two-degree-of-freedom controller comprising an adaptive output feedback control and an output predictive feedforward control to attain stable output tracking control. The aircraft model considered here has uncertain time-delay and uncertain deterioration of efficiency at the control input channel. To deal with such a time-delay uncertain system, we design an ASPR based two-degree-of-freedom controller comprising an adaptive output feedback control and an output predictive feedforward control. The effectiveness of the proposed method will be confirmed through numerical simulations with the longitudinal motion model of JAXA's research airplane MuPAL-
