Abstract

This paper investigates the performance on the aircraft control system during air refuel purposes of the Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) control alone, and the integration between fuzzy control and LQR. LQR is modern linear control that is suitable for multivariable state feedback and is known to yield good performance for linear systems or for nonlinear systems where the nonlinear aspects are presented. The fuzzy control is known to have the ability to deal with nonlinearities without having to use advanced mathematics. The LQR integrated fuzzy control (LQRIFC) simultaneously makes use of the good performance of the LQR in the region close to switching curve, and the effectiveness of the fuzzy control in region away from switching curve. A new analysis of the fuzzy system behavior presented helps to make possible precise integration of LQR features into the fuzzy control. The LQRIFC is verified by simulation to suppress the uncertainty instability more effectively than the LQR besides minimizing the time of the mission proposed.
