Sum-of-squares Flight Control Synthesis for Deep-stall Recovery

Résumé

Certification of inflight loss-of-control recovery is complicated by the highly nonlinear flight dynamics beyond stall. In lieu of extensive Monte-Carlo simulations for flight control certification, sum-of-squares programming techniques provide an algebraic approach to the problem of nonlinear control synthesis and analysis. However, reliance on polynomial models has hitherto limited applicability to aeronautical control problems. Taking advantage of recently proposed piecewise polynomial models, this paper revisits sum-of-squares techniques for recovery of an aircraft from deep-stall conditions using a realistic yet tractable aerodynamic model. Local stability analysis of classical controllers is presented as well as synthesis of polynomial feedback laws with the objective of enlarging their nonlinear region of attraction. A newly developed synthesis algorithm for infinite-horizon backwards-reachability facilitates the design of recovery control laws, ensuring stable recovery by design. The paper's results motivate future research in aeronautical sum-of-squares applications.
