  • Critical evaluation of Ouyang's model reduction method

    Creator:
    Jia, Zuxin
    Abstract:
    A model reduction method for stable, linear, time-invariant, continuous systems is critically studied. This method, proposed by Prof. Ouyang, is based on the concept of power dispersion and the least-squared estimation technique. The reduced models obtained by this method retain the stability of the stable, high order original systems and...

  • An adaptive pitch axis autopilot design for an unstable nonminimum phase pitch axis model

    Creator:
    Chen, Long Ren
    Abstract:
    An adaptive pitch axis autopilot design procedure is presented. The design procedure is applicable to both stable and unstable pitch axis models and to those having nonminimum phase. The design approach assumes the adaptive autopilot is activated after achieving level flight. It is shown a rate-feedback compensator can be designed...
