This paper focuses on the triaxial augmentation ability of the active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) technique on the tailless layout with a fully moving wing tip to achieve high control performance for the supersonic tailless aircraft. Firstly, the stability characteristics and controllability of the flying wing layout are analyzed to determine the coupling characteristics of this kind of aircraft. Secondly, an attitude controller is designed based on ADRC theory, and the linear ADRC frequency domain analysis method is introduced to analyze the influence of the bandwidth of linear extended stator on the control system. In addition, the tuning process of the attitude control law is given. Carrier dropping simulations of flight missions under nominal condition, model parameter perturbation, and wind disturbance are conducted. The results show that the designed controller can achieve full-speed domain triaxial augmentation of supersonic flying wing. This work has the potential to significantly boost the engineering acceptability and robustness of supersonic aircraft control design in real-world scenarios. The presented cascaded ADRC approach can significantly improve the performance and robustness of supersonic vehicles.
With the development of the low-altitude economy, the demand for low-altitude flight missions has steadily increased. However, such flights often encounter special circumstances requiring emergency landings. To address this, a forced landing guidance law is designed in this paper, using a small compound-wing aircraft as the research object and based on proportional guidance principles. The guidance law calculates lateral and longitudinal acceleration commands using azimuth and elevation angles provided by a seeker, which are then input into the inner-loop control law to generate control surface commands. These commands guide the aircraft toward a nearby landing point. Hardware-in-the-loop simulations demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed guidance law, and flight tests further validate its practical applicability.
