Abstract

A design technique recently proposed in [7] for stabilization of a linear system with rate-limited actuators is utilized to design feedback laws that cause the system output to track a desired command signal. This design technique combines two design techniques recently developed for linear systems with position limited actuators, piecewise-linear LQ control [14] and low-and-high gain feedback [13], and hence takes advantages of both design techniques, while avoiding their disadvantages. An open-loop exponentially unstable fighter aircraft is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control design method.
