Sliding Mode based Path Planning and Control of Impaired Aircraft

Abstract

In this study, the problem of integrated path planning and control of an impaired aircraft is formulated and solved by using a second order sliding mode control (SOSM) and a high order sliding mode (HOSM) differentiator. As an example problem, the case of an impaired aircraft with a frozen elevator is considered. The thrust alone is used as the controller to land the aircraft safely. Representative simulations are presented to demonstrate the performance of proposed controller.
