In modern aircraft, an autopilot system is getting more important. There are not many autopilot systems applied to small aircraft. Also the autopilot system in large or medium aircraft is difficult to apply to small aircraft directly. It is necessary to make a new autopilot system for small aircraft. In this paper, we implement the small aircraft simulator with autopilot system using SIMULINK. The various modes of autopilot - such as altitude select/hold, attitude hold, heading hold, etc. - are implemented to the flight simulator and tested. We also implement the VOR mode for aircraft guidance.

This paper proposes apractical design method for ship-to-ship missiles' autopilot. When the pre-designed analogue autopilot is implemented in digital way, theygenerally suffer from severe performance degradation and instability problem even for a sufficiently small sampling time. Also, aerodynamic uncertainties can affect the overall stability and this happens more severely when the nonlinear autopilot is digitally implemented. In order to realize a practical autopilot, two main issues, digital implementation problem and compensation for the aerodynamic uncertainties, are considered in this paper. MIMO (multi-input multi-output) nonlinear autopilot is presented first and the input and output of the missile are discretized for implementation. In this step, the discretization effect is compensated by designing an additional control input. Finally, we design a parameter adaptation law to compensate the control performance. Stability analysis and 6-DOF (degree-of-freedom) simulations are presented to verify the proposed adaptive autopilot.

An roll-pitch-yaw integrated autopilot for missiles is designed for compensation of dynamics coupling. The proposed autopilot is based on the classical control technique. The gains of the proposed autopilot are optimized by using co-evolutionary augmented Lagrangian method(CEALM). Several cost functions are compared in order to find feasible control gains. For a case that a bank angle of missiles is unknown, multiple models are used in the autopilot optimization. In nonlinear simulations as well as linear simulations, the proposed autopilot provided good performances.

In this paper, we investigate the time-sampling effects on the digital implementation of singular perturbation based STT autopilot with excellent performance and propose a compensation method for the time-sampling effects. In digitization of analog STT autopilot, it is found that the stability margin of the fast dynamics is mostly affected to lead to rapid decrease. Under the this analysis, a composite digital controller with additional compensator for fast dynamics is proposed to improve the time-sampling effect and a simulation verifies the result.

In this paper, we present a method to design a coupled autopilot for STT missiles which have severe aerodynamic cross-coupling. The aerodynamic model is derived in the meneuver plane and, based on that model, an autopilot scheduled by the normal acceleration and the estimated bank angle is designed. Bank angle is obtained by a simple estimator. With the proposed autopilot, it is shown by computer simulations that induced moments are properly compensated and the performance is supiorior to the conventional autopilot.

최근에 개발된 소형제트기는 조종사의 피로경감과 더불어 비행안전성 제고를 위하여 자동비행시스템이 필수적인 요소로 인식되고 있다. 또한, 소형항공기의 항공전자시스템은 집중화된 다중프로세서(centralized multi-processor)와 다중연산 계산구조(multi-process computing architectures)로서 B-777의 Integrated Modular Avionics와 유사한 시스템을 장착하는 추세이다. 이러한 소형항공기 시스템 변화는 고전적 비행방식인 조종사 중심의 비행방식에서 자동비행제어시스템(AFCS) 중심의 비행방식으로의 변화를 야기하였으며 자동 비행제어시스템의 비중은 보다 더 증가하고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 상용 소형항공기용 자동비행장치(Autopilot)에 대한 HILS를 구성하여 성능을 검증하였다. 또한, 현재 개발하고 있는 FBW용 FCC(Flight Control Computer)에 탑재될 자동비행 알고리듬에 대한 성능을 PILS를 통하여 확인하였고, 상용 Autopilot에 대한 HILS 결과와 같은 조건에서 비교하여 그 성능을 검증하였다.

The purpsoe of automatic steering system is to keep the ship's course stable with the minimum course error and rudder angle, and there have been a number of studies as to the optimal design and adjustment of the autopilot. Recently, modern control theories are being used widely in analyzing and designing the system. When a ship is at sea, autopilot installed on the ship plays an important role, particularly in the respect of economic aspects, that is, when the design and the adjustment of adjustable parameters are not conducted perfectly, the amount of loss in energy and the extension of sailing distance become large. Therefore the optimal design and adjustment of a autopilot are very important. Though P.I.D type autopilots are widely spread and generally used in modern ships, the suitability and the adjusting method are not clarified. In this paper the authors considered the stabilaity and the economical efficiency of the P.I.D. type autopilot and investigated various facts which should be considered at the time of designing and using the P.I.D. type autopilot through the digital computer simulation.

본 논문에서는 무인비행체를 특정 위치로 유도하기 위한 자동조종장치를 설계하였으며, 설계되어진 자동 조종장치에 대해 외부 교란에 대한 강건성을 시험하였다. 무인비행체의 속도를 저속, 순항, 고속으로 분류하여 각각의 속도에 대한 자동조종장치를 설계하였으며, 설계되어진 자동조종장치의 이득에 대해 이득 스케듈링을 수행하였다. 무인비행체의 운용고도에 따라 대기교란 모델을 발생하였고, 모의실험을 통해 이에 따른 무인비행체 자동조종장치의 강건성을 증명하였다.
