Decoupling Attitude Control of a Hypersonic Glide Vehicle Based on a Nonlinear Extended State Observer

摘要

Aiming at solving the attitude control problem of a hypersonic glide vehicle, this paper proposes a decoupling control method based on a nonlinear extended state observer (NESO). According to the decentralized robust control theory of Tornambè, the coupling terms and the uncertainties are regarded as generalized uncertainties, and the NESO-based estimation and compensation signals are added to the closed-loop control law. The theoretical deduction proves that the proposed method can ensure that the tracking error of the closed-loop system is uniformly bounded. The simulation is carried out on the hypersonic glide vehicle model and compared with the traditional subchannel feedback control method. The simulation results show that the designed decoupling control method has superior control performances, and the influence of channel-coupling and uncertainty is compensated to a great extent.
