Abstract:

Due to the characteristics of fast flight speed and strong maneuverability, the research on trajectory planning of hypersonic vehicle needs to consider various influencing factors and constraints such as vehicle fuel and flight safety. This article adopts integrated flight/propulsion coupling vehicle modeling, and proposes an adaptive pseudospectral trajectory optimization strategy based on trajectory design control constraints by studying the control constraints of the vehicle. Simulation comparison shows that the improved trajectory optimization strategy can provide more control margin, enabling the vehicle to climb steadily and relatively during the climb process and has more advantages in overall performance.

Key words: hypersonic vehicle, constraint condition, trajectory design, trajectory optimization, control margin
