The Study of Gain Scheduled PD-like Fuzzy Logic Control : Application to High Maneuverable Aircraft

This paper describes an approach for synthesizing a modularized gain scheduled PD type fuzzy logic controller(FLC) for a high maneuverable aircraft system, where the gains of FLC are on-line adapted according to the flight condition. Specially, the systematic procedure via root locus technique is carried out for the sellection of the gains of FLC. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed gain scheduled fuzzy logic controller yields better control performance than the normal (without gain scheduling) fuzzy controller.
