Abstract

We propose a method for test signal planning for identifying the aerodynamic characteristics of automatically controlled aircraft taking into account possible errors in a priori estimates of aerodynamic characteristics and the uncertainty in the initial conditions of the test maneuver. This method can be used in test signal planning problems with constraints on the admissible disturbances of the state vector of the aircraft in the test maneuver.
