TECS/THCS Based Flight Control System for General Aviation
Peter Chudý, Paweł Rzucidło · AIAA Modeling and Simulation Technologies Conference · 2009
This paper discusses the implementation of TECS and THCS based flight controller for a low-end general aviation application. TECS is based on en ergy distribution logic, whereas THCS uses lateral/directional criteria for aircraft control. TECS /THCS control system was subjected to simulations. The advantage of the TECS over cl assical control law designs proved to be in excellent performance and moderate complexity o f the resulting controller structure. TECS/THCS’s expected ability to support proven analytical tools compatible with the airworthiness certification procedure makes it an ideal can didate for implementation on board of a General Aviation aircraft.
