Aircraft Ground Braking Assistant Control Based on Pilot Control Model

Aircraft ground braking control is a complex time-varying dynamic problem, especially when there are unexpected disturbances from lateral wind or visual error. Therefore, under some extreme conditions, it is hard for the pilot to control aircraft braking as well as usual without assistant control. This paper solves this problem by proposing a novel assistant control for aircraft ground braking, mainly based on the pilot control model and the LPV theory. And in order to reflect the control characteristics of the pilot, the sensory and control-theoretic model were combined together for controller designing. To test the performance of proposed control method, a real time pilot-in-loop simulation system is constructed. According to experiment results, the proposed assistant control shows better performance than pilot control, for it not only help the pilot to resist disturbance, but also hardly run counter to the pilot & x2019;s intent.
