A guidance scheme that is suitable for controlling the aircraft flight path is proposed. The concept of miss distance which is commonly used in the missile guidance laws, and Lyapunov stability theorem are effectively combined to obtain the aircraft's trajectory-tracking guidance law. Guidance commands are given in terms of speed and flight path angles, but they perfectly reflect any position and velocity errors between real aircraft trajectory and reference one. The proposed guidance law is easily integrated into the existing flight control system. The new guidance law was extensively tested with various mission scenarios and the fully nonlinear 6-DOF aircraft model. Furthermore, the new guidance law was compared with previous guidance schemes in nonlinear simulation. Results from the numerical simulation show that the proposed guidance law yields better performance than previous ones.

The objective of this paper is to present trajectory guidance and control system with a dynamic inversion for a small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The UAV model is expressed by fixed-mass rigid-body six-degree-of-freedom equations of motion, which include the detailed aerodynamic coefficients, the engine model and the actuator models that have lags and limits. A trajectory is generated from the given waypoints using cubic spline functions of a flight distance. The commanded values of an angle of attack, a sideslip angle, a bank angle and a thrust, are calculated from guidance forces to trace the flight trajectory. To adapt various waypoint locations, a proportional navigation is combined with the guidance system. By the decision logic, appropriate guidance law is selected. The flight control system to achieve the commands is designed using a dynamic inversion approach. For a dynamic inversion controller we use the two-timescale assumption that separates the fast dynamics, involving the angular rates of the aircraft, from the slow dynamics, which include angle of attack, sideslip angle, and bank angle. Some numerical simulations are conducted to see the performance of the proposed guidance and control system.

This paper deals with auto-landing guidance system design applicable to Smart UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle). The proposed guidance law generates horizontal position, velocity and altitude commands in the longitudinal channel and heading angle command in the lateral channel to track a predetermined trajectory for automatic landing. The longitudinal guidance commands are derived from an approximated dynamic equations in vertical plane. These longitudinal guidance commands are appropriately distributed to each control input as the flight mode of Smart UAV is changed. The concept of VOR(VHF Omni-directional Range) guidance system is applied to generate the required heading angle commands to eliminate the lateral deviation from the desired trajectory. The performance of the proposed guidance system for Smart UAV is evaluated using the nonlinear simulation. Simulation results show that the proposed guidance system for auto- landing provides good tracking performance along the predetermined landing trajectory.

This paper describes the real time Hardware-In-the Loop Simulation(HILS) that is an efective tool for design, testing and performance evaluation of the guidanc eflight system. The real time HILS was performed by using a 3-axis flight motion simulator, real time computer, I/O system and flight control system hardware along with the assumed flight trajectory of the guidance flight system. Also, we proved the validity of the real time HILS is the guidance flight system by comparing its simulation results with the software simulation data and telemetry data.

This paper deals with the State-Dependent Riccati Equation (SDRE) Technique for the design of rotorcraft waypoint guidance. To generate the flight trajectory through multiple waypoints, we use the trigonometric spline. The controller design and its validation is based upon a level 2 simulation rotorcraft model and the designed SDRE controller is applied to the trajectory tracking problems. To verify the designed guidance law, the simulation environment of high fidelity rotorcraft model is developed using three independent PCs. This paper focuses on the validation of rotorcraft waypoint guidance law which is designed by using SDRE Controller.

본 논문에서는 한국형 달 착륙 임무를 위한 아폴로 유도 법칙의 파라미터 선정을 위한 최적화 기반의 절차를 제안하였다. 달 착륙 문제를 연료 소모량을 최소화하기 위한 궤적 최적화 문제로 공식화하였으며 비행 이전 단계에서 본 문제를 풀어 착륙선의 기준 궤적을 획득할 수 있다. 아폴로 유도의 파라미터들은 유도 명령을 정의하기 위해 사용되는 다항식의 계수들이며, 비행 이전 단계에서 구해진 기준 궤적을 기반으로 선정된다. 제안된 절차의 효과를 입증하기 위해, 본 절차를 사용한 한국형 달 착륙 임무의 착륙 유도 사례연구를 수행하였다.

This paper presents an HILS(Hardware in the Loop Simulations) based experimental study for the UAV's flight trajectory planning/generation algorithms and guidance/control laws. For the various mission that is loaded on each waypoint, proper trajectory planning and generation algorithms are applied to achieve best performances. Specially, the 'smoothing path' generation and the 'tangent orbit path' guidance laws are presented for the smooth path transitions and in-circle loitering mission, respectively. For the control laws that can minimize the effects of side wind, side slip angle($\beta$) feedback to the rudder scheme is implemented. Finally, being implemented on real hardwares, all the proposed algorithms are validated with integrations of hardware and software altogether via HILS.

Ascent trajectory optimization and optimal explicit guidance problems for a satellite launch vehicle in a 2-dimensional pitch plane are studied. The trajectory optimization problem with boundary conditions is formulated as a nonlinear programming problem by parameterizing the pitch attitude control variable, and is solved by using the SQP algorithm. The flight constraints such as gravity-turn are imposed. An optimal explicit guidance algorithm in the exoatmospheric phase is also presented, the guidance algorithm provides steering command and time-to-go value directly using the current states of the vehicle and the desired orbit insertion conditions. To verify the optimality and accuracy of the algorithm simulations are performed.
