Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a design method for an acceleration feedback autopilot based on a statically unstable projectile, belonging to the field of aircraft control technology. Background Technology

[0002] The core task of an autopilot is to ensure that the aircraft accurately and robustly tracks the command signals generated by the guidance system, enabling the aircraft to generate corresponding control forces and torques according to the command signals, thereby allowing the aircraft to fly stably until it hits the target.

[0003] Most existing autopilots use the classic three-loop autopilot, which has a good control effect on traditional aircraft. However, for statically unstable aircraft, when the aircraft is disturbed by external disturbances and deviates from its equilibrium state, the aerodynamic torque generated by the missile at the moment the disturbance disappears causes the aircraft to deviate further from its original equilibrium position, and the control effect of the classic three-loop autopilot becomes significantly worse.

[0034] The term “exemplary” as used herein means “serving as an example, embodiment, or illustration.” Any embodiment illustrated herein as “exemplary” is not necessarily to be construed as superior to or better than other embodiments. Although various aspects of embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale unless specifically indicated otherwise.

[0035] According to the present invention, an acceleration feedback autopilot design method based on a statically unstable spring is provided, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes the following steps:

[0036] S1. Establish the longitudinal linear dynamic equation;

[0037] S2. Construct the framework for the acceleration autopilot;

[0038] S3. Set the control parameters for the acceleration autopilot to obtain the autopilot;

[0039] S4. Use an autopilot to control the flight status of the aircraft.

[0040] In S1, the longitudinal linear dynamic equation is expressed as:

[0048] In S2, the acceleration autopilot frame includes a pitch loop autopilot and a yaw loop autopilot;

[0049] The yaw loop autopilot structure is symmetrically arranged with the pitch loop autopilot structure.

[0050] In traditional autopilots, the feedback signals are typically pitch angle, pitch rate, and longitudinal acceleration. For statically unstable aircraft, when the aircraft is disturbed by external disturbances and deviates from its equilibrium state, the traditional autopilot will cause the aircraft to deviate further from its original equilibrium position the instant the disturbance disappears.

[0051] In this invention, the pitch loop autopilot is a three-loop autopilot structure, including a damping stabilization inner loop, a stability enhancement loop, and an acceleration loop outer loop, as shown below.

[0055] The pitch angular velocity Based on longitudinal acceleration a y The solution is obtained by solving the longitudinal linear dynamic equation.

[0056] Furthermore, a closed-loop gain K is provided in the pitch loop autopilot. DC , used to respond to the input acceleration command a yc Adjust the gain, and then use the acceleration command a′ after obtaining the gain. yc It is superimposed on the feedback signal of the outer loop of the acceleration loop, and then passed through the proportional module K. A Points module Then, it is superimposed with the feedback signal of the stability enhancement loop and the feedback signal of the damping stability inner loop, and then processed by the servo gain K. ACT The rudder deflection angle δ is generated afterward. e Based on rudder deflection angle δ e The longitudinal acceleration 'a' is obtained by solving the longitudinal linear dynamic equation. y .

Furthermore, compared to other autopilots, the stability enhancement loop in this invention uses longitudinal acceleration α. y As a feedback signal, it enables statically unstable aircraft to respond more quickly, allowing them to achieve rapid response and precision strikes in a short period of time.

[0058] Based on longitudinal acceleration a y The pitch angular velocity is obtained by solving the longitudinal linear dynamic equation. Based on rudder deflection angle δ e The longitudinal acceleration 'a' is obtained by solving the longitudinal linear dynamic equation. y The specific solution process is not described in detail in this invention, but those skilled in the art can do so based on experience.

[0059] Furthermore, the acceleration gain K ac Closed-loop gain K DC , Proportional module K A Points module Servo gain K ACT These are all commonly used gains or modules in autopilots. In this invention, the specific settings of their parameters are not limited, and those skilled in the art can set them freely.

[0060] Preferably, the servo gain K ACT Set as a constant term.

[0061] In S3, when setting the control parameters of the acceleration autopilot, without considering the dynamics of hardware such as accelerometers and angular rate gyroscopes, and placing all feedback at the servo motor, the following can be obtained:

[0062]

[0063] Combining the state equations of the longitudinal dynamic equations, the state feedback matrix can be obtained as follows:

[0064]

[0065] Among them, k1, k2, and k3 are intermediate variables.

[0066] The output feedback matrix is:

[0067]

[0068]

[0069] From the relationship between the output feedback matrix and the state feedback matrix, we can obtain:

[0070]

[0075] It should be understood that the various forms of processes shown above can be used to rearrange, add, or delete steps.

[0076] Example

[0077] Example 1

[0078] The simulation experiment was conducted, and the driver's instrument was obtained through the following methods:

[0079] S1. Establish the longitudinal linear dynamic equation;

[0080] S2. Construct the framework for the acceleration autopilot;

[0081] S3. Set the control parameters for the acceleration autopilot to obtain the autopilot.

[0082] In S1, the longitudinal linear dynamic equation is expressed as:

[0083]

[0084] In S2, the acceleration autopilot frame includes a pitch loop autopilot and a yaw loop autopilot, wherein the pitch loop autopilot structure is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the yaw loop autopilot structure and the pitch loop autopilot structure are arranged symmetrically.

[0085] In S3, the acceleration autopilot control parameters are set as follows:

[0086]

[0087]

[0088]

[0089]

[0090] During the simulation, a statically unstable missile was used as the simulation object. The missile was simulated using perturbed feature points, specifically: a α =-175, b α =1.67, V = 359; during the simulation, k is set... ACT =-1, K is obtained through S3 calculation A =0.0142, K I =0.0055, K G =0.0907.

[0091] During the simulation, the input acceleration command was set to a square wave signal of 1 m / s². 2 3m / s 2 2m / s 2 The frequency of the driver instrument was set to 5 rad / s, 15 rad / s, and 33 rad / s respectively, and the output response curves were obtained as follows: Figure 3 As shown.

[0092] As can be seen from the figure, the longitudinal acceleration of the statically unstable missile can reach a corresponding stable state after receiving a changing square wave signal. At the same time, the autopilot frequency has little effect on the stable state. When the autopilot frequency increases, the system response time decreases, that is, the response speed increases.

[0093] The present invention has been described above with reference to preferred embodiments; however, these embodiments are merely exemplary and illustrative. Various substitutions and modifications can be made to the present invention based on these embodiments, all of which fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
