Abstract:
In this study, a sliding mode controller is designed for a longitudinal dynamic model of a span and sweep-varying morphing unmanned aerial vehicle. Changes in aerodynamic and dynamic characteristics of the morphing wing aircraft model are investigated. Controller is designed based on an input-output linearization scheme to accomplish regulation and command tracking of airspeed and altitude. Numerical simulation is performed, and the results show that nominal tracking performance of the proposed controller is maintained even in the presence of the morphing wing configuration changes.
