| Abstract | Quantitative feedback theory (QFT) is used to design the digital flight control system for an unmanned research vehicle (URV). Digital controllers are designed for 3 outputs which are controlled via 7 independent control surfaces. The system is transformed into the w'-domain and a 3×7 plant matrix P of transfer functions is derived relating surface deflections to system outputs incorporating servos. By specifying the form of the output and using the concept of a pseudoinverse, a 7×3 surface weighting matrix ¿ is developed to obtain an effective 3×3 square plant matrix Pe = P¿ whose determinant is minimum-phase (m.p.) for all flight conditions (FC). A single set of fixed controllers and prefilters are obtained via QFT, which apply the appropriate feedback to maintain control over the entire range of uncertainty due to surface failures. Single, double, and triple failures are considered. Failed surfaces are considered locked in the trim condition. Fault detection/isolation and scheduling are not required. Healthy aircraft (A/C) loop bandwidths for roll rate, yaw rate and c* loops are 24, 23.3, and 43.5 rps respectively. For a 6 s pulse input, none of the surfaces are seen to saturate. All A/C states also seem to be reasonable. A modification is made to the controllers to compensate for the addition of more realistic servos and sensors. The resulting design is nearly as robust as the original system. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
