Abstract
The paper summarizes the results of an ongoing
effort in the development and flight validation and verification
of the metrics driven L1 adaptive flight control system. In
particular, the paper develops a unified framework for design,
implementation, validation and verification of flight critical
control systems including: (i) definition of experimental control
validation technique that accounts for generalized plant
uncertainties or unmodeled dynamics; (ii) tuning the developed
L1 adaptive controller to explicitly address performance metrics
in the presence of modeling uncertainties under adverse flight
conditions; (iii) development of a flight control system testing
environment for implementation of the resulting algorithms
onboard of a small unmanned aerial vehicle; and (iv) designing
and conducting of a comprehensive flight test validation and
verification program that demonstrates performance of the
proposed adaptive control algorithm.
