Optimal Control Theories in the Design of Aircraft Stability Augmentation and Control Systems

This paper outlines modern optimal control theory and its possible application to the design of some aircraft control systems. Both continuous and discrete control laws are considered. Deterministic linear systems with a quadratic index of performance (state feedback) are discussed and extended to r...
