Optimal three-dimensional flight control of a supersonic fighter

Published: 07 June 1982 Publication History

Abstract

This paper discusses optimal three-dimensional flight control of a supersonic fighter through an onboard automatic guidance and control system. This system is simulated to check the speed requirements of the algorithms to be solved before being implemented in real hardware. A very-high-speed digital computer is used for this time-critical simulation. In the simulation optimal trajectories are generated in real time, on line. Results obtained from the particular problem of a real-time, online minimum-time supersonic chandelle with prescribed final point are displayed.
