Towards Intelligent Control for Next Generation Aircraft

摘要: NASA Aeronautics Subsonic Fixed Wing Project is focused on mitigating the environmental and operation impacts expected as aviation operations triple by 2025. The approach to extend technological capabilities explore novel civil transport configurations that reduce noise, emissions, fuel consumption field length. Two Next Generation (NextGen) aircraft have been identified meet goals - these are Hybrid Wing-Body (HWB) Cruise Efficient Short Take-Off Landing (CESTOL) aircraft. technologies concepts developed for complicate vehicle s design operation. In this paper, flight control challenges NextGen described. objective of paper examine potential state-of-the-art architectures algorithms needed performance metrics control. A broad range conventional intelligent approaches considered, including dynamic inversion control, integrated flight-propulsion allocation, adaptive data-based predictive reinforcement learning
