 Simulink Model of Lateral SAS

We took the system as given in the lecture slides .This system is for two inputs and two outputs
(yaw rate and bank angle ) and two inputs (rudder and aileron).
We first feed the system in the Matlab editor to use it in the LTI system in SIMULINK.

This System would be used for the analysis and creation of an augmentation system.
CHARACTERISTICS Of THE POLES

INITIAL OPEN LOOP RESPONSE :

We have to make the characteristics such that it matches the Handling Quality requirements
INITIAL STEP RESPONSE:

OPEN LOOP MODEL IN SIMULINK

Here we used LTI block for sys and Demux to separate the two outputs . Mux is used to combine
the 2 input to feed them to the LTI system . We have marked the Rudder Input as Input
perturbation from linear analysis point in SIMULINK ,Scope are used to see the response.
INITIAL RESPONSE ON THE SCOPE

ADDED YAW RATE FEEDBACK LOOP

Here we have used a gain and make a yaw rate feedback system (a positive feedback). To
Workspace exports the data to Wokspace.
CONTROL SYSTEM DESIGNER :
Here Compensator gain were changed to get the desired output

ROOT LOCUS:

We see that the Damping

ratio is 0.44 and
Frequency is 0.692

These meet our

requirements
RESPONSE AFTER FEEDBACK and GAIN VARIATION

RESPONSE ON SCOPE :
IMPULSE RESPONSE OF THE WHOLE SYSTEM :
Response of Bank Angle to Aileron Transfer Function

We see that spiral mode is over stabilized and becomes zero , which is not acceptable to the
pilots.
We will try to decrease some stability to make the spiral mode such that it does not
returns to Zero. For this purpose we will use washout filter

ADDITION OF WASHOUT FILTER :

We add a washout filter with transfer function (s/s+0.2) with gain 1
ROOT LOCUS FOR NEW CONFIGURATION :

SCOPE
RESPONSES AFTER WASHOUT FILTER
SPIRAL MODE RESPONSE LESS STABLE
