Neural back-stepping control of hypersonic flight vehicle with actuator fault (Q1629479)

Summary: This paper addresses the fault-tolerant control of hypersonic flight vehicle. To estimate the unknown function in flight dynamics, neural networks are employed in controller design. Moreover, in order to compensate the actuator fault, an adaptive signal is introduced in the controller design to estimate the unknown fault parameters. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed approach could obtain satisfying performance.
