SUMMARY:GNC Algorithm Development for a Low-Cost Research Missile
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer:Anne Kitzmiller\n Faculty:Department of Aerospace Engi
 neering\n Institute:Technion – Israel Institute of Technology\n Location
 :https://technion.zoom.us/j/97696029786\n Zoom: \n Abstract: \n Details: \
 n In this talk the flight software containing the GNC algorithms for a low
 -cost research missile will be presented. The research missile will be emp
 loyed as a recoverable testbed for the integration and evaluation of advan
 ced flight algorithms. This reusability is intended to reduce the cost of 
 flight test\, and the overall cost of each test asset is contained by util
 izing commercial off-the-shelf avionics in the missile. An effective missi
 le test platform is both reliable and recoverable\, such that it can be re
 used for subsequent flight testing. The missile configuration and proposed
  GNC algorithms were designed to achieve these objectives. The flight soft
 ware is comprised of four modules: guidance\, navigation\, control\, and f
 light logic. The proposed control architecture is that of a skid-to-turn m
 issile\, such that the missile tracks vertical and horizontal acceleration
  commands Az and Ay while regulating the roll angle phi to zero. The guida
 nce algorithm generates the Az\, Ay and phi commands for executing desired
  trajectory. The flight logic defines the phases of flight along the traje
 ctory and contains algorithms for detecting the transition events includin
 g launch\, main engine cutoff\, apogee\, and recovery. The flight software
  and missile performance are evaluated using 6DOF simulations and Monte Ca
 rlo analyses. The code is then compiled and implemented on the Pixhawk fli
 ght computer and tested by Processor-in-the-Loop and Hardware-in-the-Loop 
 simulations.
