The full results of troubleshooting process related to the flight control system of a tilt-rotor type UAV in the flight tests are described. Flight tests were conducted in helicopter, conversion, and airplane modes. The vehicle was flown using automatic functions, which include speed-hold, altitude-hold, heading-hold, guidance modes, as well as automatic take-off and landing. Many unexpected problems occurred during the envelope expansion tests which were mostly under those automatic functions. The anomalies in helicopter mode include vortex ring state (VRS), long delay in the automatic take-off, and the initial overshoot in the automatic landing. In contrast, the anomalies in conversion mode are untrimmed AOS oscillation and the calibration errors of the air data sensors. The problems of low damping in rotor speed and roll rate responses are found in airplane mode. Once all of the known problems had been solved, the vehicle in airplane mode gradually reached the maximum design speed of 440km/h at the operation altitude of 3km. This paper also presents a comprehensive detailing of the control systems of the tilt-rotor unmanned air vehicle (UAV).

본 논문에서는 비행물체의 운동에 기초한 지능제어 알고리즘을 사용하여 대기의 환경적 요인과 기체형태 및 추력의 인위적 요인들간의 복잡한 함수관계를 지식과 경험에 의한 제어규칙으로서 비행안정성 확보와 자율비행을 위한 비행 자세제어를 행하였다. 비행 자세제어를 위하여 사용한 지능제어기는 다변수 입력 및 출력이 가능하며 강인성을 지닌 퍼지제어기를 사용하였다. 실험을 위해 모형비행기와 자세 검출용 센서를 제작하고, 비행 전문가의 지식과 경험을 기초로 하여 작성한 제어규칙에 의하여 프로그램 된 퍼지제어기를 수 차례의 시험비행을 통해 제어규칙을 조정한 결과 안정된 자세제어를 행할 수 있었다

Relaxed Static Stability(RSS) has been applied to improve flight performance of modern version supersonic jet fighters. Flight control systems are necessary to stabilize an unstable aircraft and to provide adequate handling qualities. Also, flight control systems of modern aircraft employ many safety measure to cope with emergency situations such as a pilot unknown attitude flight conditions of an aircraft in night flight-testing. This situation is dangerous because the aircraft can lose if the pilot not take recognizance of situation. The system called the "Pilot Activated Recovery System" or PARS, provided a pilot initiated automatic maneuver capable of an aircraft recoveries in situations of unusual attitudes, speed and altitude. This paper addresses the concept of PARS with AARS(Automatic Attitude Recovery System), ATCS(Automatic Thrust Control System) and MARES(Minimum Altitude Recovery Estimation System), and this control law is designed by nonlinear control law design process based on model of supersonic jet trainer. And, this control law is verified by real-time pilot evaluation using an HQS(Handling Quality Simulator). The result of evaluation reveals that the these systems support recovery of an aircraft unusual attitude and speed, and improve a safety of an aircraft.

The objective of this paper is to estimate the aerodynamic derivatives of a single turbo-prop aircraft at a specified flight condition for the best deduction of the dynamic characteristics using modified maximum likelihood estimation method whcih is known to be unbiased, efficient, and consistent. The flight test data necessary to the estimation of aerodynamic derivatives is obtained by implementing the six degree of freedom nonlinear flight simulation to consider the effects of several control input types, control deflection amplitudes, and intensity of turbulence. The simulated data is added with the measurement noise, which is regarded as the actual flight test data.

Most large commercial aircrafts and high performance military aircrafts use fly-by-wire (FBW) or fly-by-light systems to improve their controllability, comfort, and safety. A flight envelope protection technique is used with flight control systems utilizing the FBW technique. Such flight envelope protection systems prevent these aircraft from exceeding the structural/aerodynamic limits and control their surface limits. This is accomplished by predicting the values of the future state variables and adaptively compensating the control action. In this study, the conventional dynamic trim algorithm of the flight envelope protection is modified to increase the method accuracy and to handle cases with multiple variables. Numerical simulation is also performed to verify the performance of the proposed method.

The modified maximum likelihood estimation method is used to estimate the nondimensional aerodynamic derivatives of a single turbo-prop aircraft at a specified flight condition for the best deduction of the dynamic characteristics. In wind axes the six degree of freedom equations are algebraically linearized so that the linear state equation contains aerodynamic derivatives in a state-space form and is used in the maximum likelihood method. The simulated data added with the measurement noise is used as a flight test data which is necessary to the estimation of nondimensional aerodynamic derivatives. It is obtained by implementing the 6-DOF nonlinear flight simulation. In the flight simulation, the effects of several control input types, control deflection amplitudes, and the turbulence intensities on the statistical convergence criteria are also examined and quantitative analysis of the results is discussed.

3중 비행제어시스템이 종래의 4중 비행제어시스템과 유사한 수준의 시스템 신뢰성과 이중 결함시의 안전한 운용성능을 제공하기 위해서는 기존의 고전적인 다중화 설계기법에 많은 변경과 수정이 필요하다. 이에 따라 국내에서 개발된 고등훈련기급의 3중 비행제어시스템 다중화 설계기법은 4중 시스템과 동일한 수준의 생존성을 확보하기 위해서 3중 시스템의 핵심인 비행제어컴퓨터의 입출력 프로세서와 메인 프로세서를 기능적으로 분리시켜 상호 고장에 대한 영향성을 최소화키고, 시스템의 치명적인 결함을 검출하기 위해서 특별한 고장 분석 기법과 격리 알고리즘을 적용하여 비행제어시스템의 안정성과 신뢰도가 보장되도록 설계하였다. 본 논문은 이러한 다중 시스템 구조와 고장관리 설계기법을 소개하고 설계된 3중 비행제어시스템의 손실율 분석을 통해서 기존 신뢰성 요구도가 만족됨을 해석적으로 입증하였으며, 또한 3중 비행제어시스템의 각종 고장모드에 대한 시스템 영향성 및 안정성 시험을 통해서 그 성능을 검증하였다.
