    • Adaptive Control of a Generic Hypersonic Vehicle 

      Wiese, Daniel P.; Annaswamy, Anuradha M.; Muse, Jonathan A.; Bolender, Michael A.; Lavretsky, Eugene (2016-03-10)
      This paper presents an adaptive augmented, gain-scheduled baseline LQR-PI controller applied to the Road Runner six-degree-of-freedom generic hypersonic vehicle model. Uncertainty in control effectiveness, longitudinal ...

    • Adaptive Output Feedback Based on Closed-Loop Reference Models for Hypersonic Vehicles 

      Wiese, Daniel P.; Annaswamy, Anuradha M.; Muse, Jonathan A.; Bolender, Michael A.; Lavretsky, Eugene (2016-03-09)
      This paper presents a new method of synthesizing an output feedback adaptive controller for a class of uncertain, non-square, multi-input multi-output systems that often occur in hypersonic vehicle models. The main challenge ...

    • Sequential Loop Closure Based Adaptive Autopilot Design for a Hypersonic Vehicle 

      Wiese, Daniel P.; Annaswamy, Anuradha M.; Muse, Jonathan A.; Bolender, Michael A.; Lavretsky, Eugene (2016-03-09)
      This paper presents a sequential loop closure approach to designing a velocity and altitude tracking au- topilot for a hypersonic vehicle. The control architecture consists of two decoupled control subsystems, one for ...
