In aircraft control systems design it is essential to have an understanding of modern control theory. This chapter shows how to use modern control techniques to design multivariable and multiloop aircraft flight control systems. The approach is based on the state‐variable model and a mathematical performance criterion selected according to the performance objectives. Two basic modern design techniques are covered. The chapter discusses eigenstructure assignment techniques that take advantage of the freedom inherent in design for systems with more than one input and/or output to assign the closed‐loop poles and eigenvectors. It covers linear quadratic (LQ) techniques, where the control gains are selected to minimize generalized quadratic performance indices (PIs). The chapter also discusses dynamic inversion design, which results in a controller with an inner feedback linearization loop and an outer tracking loop.
