Abstract
The paper has studied the control of the receiver aircraft during tracking and docking procedures in the autonomous aerial refueling. Based on the dynamic inversion control method and robust control method, the guidance and control law of the receiver aircraft tracking and docking control system is designed. Considering the inversion error from the inner loop dynamic inversion controller calculation caused by external disturbance, the robustness of the controller is improved by compensating the inversion error using H ∞ loop shaping control method. Finally, the simulation results indicate that the control system of the receiver aircraft could reduce the difficulty and enhance the accuracy of aerial refueling docking.Keywords
