Abstract

Abstract:

In view of the attitude control problem of high performance for air-breathing hypersonic vehicle under the condition of vehicle/engine coupling effect, a high-performance sliding mode control （SMC） method for adaptive observation compensation is designed. This method is based on the SMC with exponential convergence and introduces an extended state observer （ESO） for control compensation. In order to improve the attitude control performance under model uncertainty, a control parameter optimization method based on comprehensive indicators is proposed, and the current complex gain tuning problems of SMC and ESO is solved through nonlinear optimization methods. Mathematical simulation results demonstrate robust attitude tracking under multiple combined uncertainties. Furthermore, hardware-in-the-loop simulation verifies that the proposed method outperforms benchmark SMC and nonlinear dynamic inversion control in overshoot suppression and setting time reduction under strongly coupled and highly nonlinear conditions.

Key words: air-breathing hypersonic vehicle, vehicle/engine coupling, sliding mode control （SMC）, control parameter optimization, hardware-in-the-loop simulation
