Distributed Flight Control System Simulator for Aircraft Autostabilization
Sažetak
The current automatic aircraft control concept includes a central system of computers that controls the servo-actuators located near the flight control surfaces. The main point of this project is to decentralize the flight control system in a way to locate the microprocessors near the flight control surfaces that would enable reduction of mass and simplification of the control system and architecture. The work done so far is combination of theoretical and experimental research. The first results are published as conference papers indexed in IEEE Explore and Scopus database. The first paper was aimed to provide a survey of technologies developed and deployed for distributed flight control system, while the second one outlines design for Fully Distributed Flight Control System (FDFCS) and its control units, identifies the possible problems that a distributed flight control system implies and solves, and sets requirements for the planned FDFCS Hardware in the Loop Simulator.
