Abstract :
For a test aircraft in a wind tunnel with magnetic suspension and balance systems, a decoupling control configuration is proposed. Using the input-output decoupling technique the flight variables are controlled independently at all frequencies and for all aerodynamic and electromagnetic conditions. The decoupling controllers are static. The performance of the resulting closed-loop system is quite satisfactory
