[0002] The integrated flight control system is developing towards electrification and intelligence. As the complexity of flight missions gradually increases, the requirements for the real-time, reliability and stability of the aircraft integrated system are becoming higher and higher. However, due to the complex and harsh flight environment and the large number of unknown factors in the flight process, it is easy to cause failures in the aircraft system and affect its safe operation. Therefore, it is urgent to carry out research to improve the accuracy of aircraft system state estimation to ensure the safe operation of the aircraft. The rise of interval observer theory provides a new idea for state estimation. The so-called interval observer refers to a range or interval of state changes given by constructing upper and lower bound observers when there are uncertain factors in the system. The method is simple and intuitive.

[0121] Furthermore, the sampling time is selected and the discretized linear model of the longitudinal motion equation of the aircraft is obtained using the zero-order holder method as follows:

[0122] x(k+1)=Ax(k)+Bu(k)

[0123] Where A and B are the system state matrix and control matrix after the system (2) is decentralized, and k is the time step.

[0124] In order to better fit the actual situation and consider the influence of external disturbances, a discrete time linear model of the longitudinal motion of the aircraft with external disturbances is constructed:

[0136]

[0137] Use formula (5) to design an adaptive interval observer:

[0138]

[0139] In the formula, and y(k) are the upper and lower bounds of the state estimate, for The same applies. e y (k) = y(k) - y(k), and A y are the interval observer parameters to be designed; and The adaptive law is designed and Specifically:

[0140]

[0141] Among them, sgn is the sign function, σ i >δ i >0 is the design parameter that affects the interval width, λ i >0 is the rate of change.

[0142] Step 4: To design the system matrix and A y , construct an optimization problem with linear matrix inequality constraints:

[0143] If there is a matrix This solves the following problems:

[0144] minγs.t.

[0145]

[0146] Among them, P>0 means that the matrix is ​​positive definite, and the matrix is a symmetric matrix and Indicates that the matrix is ​​negatively definite, and the symbol ≥0 means that every element is greater than or equal to 0; V 11 、V 22 ∈R n×n is a diagonal positive matrix, ∏ n2 =V 22g a gh ,g,h=1,2,…,n;V 11g Represents the matrix V 11 The gth element on the diagonal, V 22g Similarly; and a gh The matrices to be determined are With A y The elements of the g rows and h columns, γ and μ are scalars greater than 0, 0<α<1, is a diagonal positive matrix;

[0148] e=-(1-α)P 31 , f = -(1-α)P 32 ,

[0149] g=-(1-α)P 42 ,

[0150]

[0151] Then the system matrix gain to be determined is

[0152] The aircraft system state estimation method based on the adaptive interval observer of the present application designs the adaptive interval observer based on the idea of ​​robust stability. For a type of aircraft longitudinal motion system, the method first constructs a discrete linear system model according to the longitudinal motion characteristics of the aircraft; reduces the dimension of the system using non-singular transformations; and further introduces the adaptive law to design an adaptive interval observer to achieve state estimation of the aircraft longitudinal motion system. The method uses the adaptive law to improve the accuracy of state estimation. In addition, the obtained system state estimation interval can be used to implement fault detection decisions and improve the system's sensitivity to sudden faults.
