Simulation in MATLAB

The document outlines the process of simulating a flight control system in MATLAB, detailing the definition of the system's matrices, inputs, outputs, and transfer functions. It includes the setup of sum blocks and the connection of various components to form a complete system. Finally, it describes how to simulate the system with a defined input signal and plot the results.

1. Consider the following flight control system and define aircraft and its parameters in
MATLAB.

2. Now define each block and its inputs and outputs.

sys = ss(A,B,eye(4),zeros(4,2));
sys.u = {'delta_A','delta_R'}; sys.y = {'beta','p','phi','r'};
TF = tf([g],[V 0]); TF.u = 'phi'; TF.y = 'psi';
Kp = tf(-10); Kp.u = 'p_err'; Kp.y = 'delta_A';
Kphi = tf(0.5); Kphi.u = 'phi_err'; Kphi.y = 'p_ref';
Kpsi = tf(5); Kpsi.u = 'psi_err'; Kpsi.y = 'phi_ref';
Kr = tf(-1); Kr.u = 'r_err'; Kr.y = 'delta_R';
Kbeta = tf(0.5); Kbeta.u = 'beta_err'; Kbeta.y = 'r_ref';

3. Define sum blocks

sum1 = sumblk('p_err = p_ref - p');


sum2 = sumblk('phi_err = phi_ref - phi');
sum3 = sumblk('psi_err = psi_ref - psi');
sum4 = sumblk('r_err = r_ref - r');
sum5 = sumblk('beta_err = beta_ref - beta');

4. Define inputs and outputs of complete systems and connect the blocks.

Y = {'beta','p','phi','psi','r'};
U = {'psi_ref','beta_ref'};
T = connect(sys,TF,Kp,Kphi,Kpsi,Kr,Kbeta,sum1,sum2,sum3,sum4,sum5,U,Y);

5. Simulate the system

%% Define Input signal


t=(0:0.01:50)'; % Time
beta_ref = zeros(size(t)); % Zero (Constant)
psi_ref = step(tf(1),t); % Step input
input = [psi_ref,beta_ref];

%% Simulate
[y,t] = lsim(T,input,t); % Simulate the system
plot(t,y(:,[2,3,4])); % Plot 'p', 'phi' and 'psi'
Info = lsiminfo(y,t,[0,0,0,1,0]); % find response characteristics
