Modernized Control Laws for UH-60 BLACK HAWK Optimization and Flight-Test Results

Abstract: Modernized control laws were developed to provide an attitude-command/attitude-hold response type for the UH-60 BLACK HAWK helicopter and thereby afford improved handling qualities for near-Earth operation in night and poor weather. The inner-loop system modernized control laws were implemented using the 10% authority stability augmentation system actuators and was evaluated in an EH-60L helicopter. Central to addressing the significant resource and technical challenges of this project was the extensive use of… Show more

“…8) This paper applied the multi-objective parameter optimization method using Control Designer's Unified Interface (CONDUIT) tool, which has been proven through successful applications for UH-60 and Fire Scout MQ-8 in previous studies. 9,10) All simulation codes are made under the Matlab/Simulink environment and integrated with the logics presented in the previous sections using the Stateflow program in order to facilitate the real-time implementation and generation of the C-codes for loading in the onboard flight control computer (FCC).…”

“…Tischler et al 20 documented the development of modernized control laws (MCLAWS) to provide an attitude-command/attitude-hold response type for the UH-60 and thereby afford improved handling qualities for near-Earth operation in night and poor weather. Initial flight tests of the baseline gain set showed significant qualitative discrepancies with the predicted characteristics based on the SIMULINK ® analysis model.…”

“…This ensured that the improvements seen in analysis and simulation would be realized in flight. A full discussion of control law validation and final handling-qualities performance is presented in Tischler et al 20 Numerical linearization of complex block diagram models (e.g., using the MATLAB ® function linmod) for the purpose of obtaining a state-space representation can be problematic and should be checked before using the result in linear analyses. Time integration of the block diagram model can be considered to be accurate.…”
