Abstract

This paper presents a reconfigurable flight control method based on face searching allocation algorithm for aircraft with multiple effectors. Besides the function of distributing the desired moments to control surfaces reasonably, face searching method is beneficial for the design of the reconfigurable control system. It can provide the biggest attainable moment subset and provide the maximum moment in any direction. The approach solves different effector failures by the solution of re-allocating the healthy effectors. With the redundancy of remaining effectors, the method can compensate the effects of the failure surfaces and still provide the same desired control input. Simulation results show that reconfigurable control system designed by this method can deal with the different effector failures well.
