Reference command tracking and simulation research of hypersonic cruise vehicle

The focus of this paper is on control design and simulation for an air-breathing hypersonic cruise vehicle (HCV). Aiming at the highly nonlinear and strong coupling for HCV mathematical model, the theory of feedback linearization based Lie derivative introduced can convert accurately nonlinear mathematic model into equivalent linear model for control design. By the proper transformation, dynamic inversion flight control systems for hypersonic vehicle designed can stabilize the system and relieve the coupling effects. Simulation results show the correctness of the simulation platform and the effectiveness of the control approach.
