AI Technical Summary
Existing aircraft towing and airdrop feedback control designs are mainly designed for normal flight across the entire flight envelope, lacking designs specifically for towing and airdrop missions. This results in a heavy operational burden for the crew and poses significant potential dangers.

The state variables of the aircraft feedback control are determined, and the feedback control gain in each state is calculated using PID and LQR methods. The real-time feedback control gain is obtained through interpolation to adapt to the movement state of the cargo.
It enables real-time control of the aircraft's response throughout the entire towing and airdrop process, reducing the operational burden on the crew and lowering the risks associated with towing and airdrops.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the technical field of aircraft traction airdrop steady feedback control gain determination method design, specifically involving an aircraft traction airdrop steady feedback control gain determination method and system. Background Technology
[0002] Towing airdrop is a typical method for rapidly dropping large-mass cargo by aircraft. Based on the number of cargo items to be towed, it can be divided into towing single drop and towing multiple drops.
[0003] During the airdrop process, the heavy cargo moves towards the cargo hold exit. During this movement, it interacts with the aircraft, generating an additional pitching moment that causes the aircraft to pitch up rapidly until it leaves the aircraft. The additional moment disappears abruptly the moment the heavy cargo leaves the aircraft, causing the aircraft to pitch down rapidly.
[0004] During the towing and airdrop process, the aircraft's condition will change drastically. The crew needs to keep the aircraft's condition within the limits of use. This requires the crew to react quickly, which is a heavy operational burden. There will also be a lot of turbulence, which poses a significant potential danger to the aircraft pilot.
[0005] Currently, during towing and airdrop operations, the crew generates the desired pitch moment by manipulating the longitudinal control surfaces. Feedback control, based on the aircraft's response and according to set gain and logic, deflects the elevator in real time to suppress response changes. However, current feedback control designs are primarily geared towards normal flight across the entire aircraft envelope and lack specific applications for towing and airdrop missions, thus exacerbating the inherent dangers of towing and airdrop operations. Therefore, this application is submitted. Summary of the Invention
