Abstract
In this paper, the methodology of a CA (Control Allocation) based FTNCS (Fault-Tolerant Networked Control System) isproposed. Control allocation is a control surface management technique by redistributing the redundant control surfaces in overactuatedsystems. In modern high performance aircrafts, they adopt many redundant control surfaces to provide high performanceand to satisfy various tactical requirements. Moreover, redundant control surfaces provide an opportunity to compensate performancedegradation due to failures in more than one actuator by re-allocating redundant control surfaces. Simulation results with an F-18HARV demonstrate that the proposed CA based FTNCS can achieve a fast and accurate tracking performance even in the presence ofactuator faults.
