Abstract

The article is focused on the results of analysis aimed at selected variables, which are found to be important for the automatic flight control in case of passing by a moving obstacle. Desired values of state variables, significant for the run of automatically controlled evasive manoeuvre, are computed. The set of four control laws is proposed for selected object capable to perform manoeuvres from the considered class. The appropriate controller gain are computed to guarantee the fulfilment of criteria assumed for automatic control. Numerical flight simulations are completed to cover the aforementioned phases of evasive manoeuvre and selected scenarios of objects motion. The results obtained can be treated as the source of information opening the deeper insight into a behaviour of the controlled aircraft in case of known scenario of obstacle’s motion.
