The invention discloses a predetermined time
adaptive control method for a wing-riding separation variant gliding aircraft, and the method specifically comprises the following steps: firstly, constructing a time
scale function, and effectively avoiding the problems of unlimited increase of control quantity and singularity; secondly, designing a preset time sliding mode surface based on the time
scale function; thirdly, providing a neural
network parameter identification strategy, and converting a
system identification problem into a parameter
estimation problem so as to adapt to a flight scene with uncertain aerodynamic parameters; and finally, designing a preset time self-adaptive sliding mode controller, and realizing convergence in specified time under the condition of ensuring that the
system state is not dependent on an initial condition. The adaptive
gain of the controller can be dynamically adjusted according to the
system environment,
jitter can be inhibited, tracking errors can be reduced, and the influence caused by centralized uncertainty can be weakened; in conclusion, the control method not only realizes accurate attitude tracking, but also achieves preset time convergence characteristics irrelevant to initial conditions and
control parameters, and has excellent quick responsiveness, stability and robustness.
