Abstract:
A control system for an aerospace vehicle includes a voter and a plurality of control blocks. Each control block includes: a controller configured to receive an input signal and perform a control algorithm that includes an integral function on the input signal to provide an output signal; and a feedback controller that is configured to: receive the output signal from the controller, a reference signal from an external controller, and a plant feedback signal from an external plant; perform a feedback algorithm on the output signal to provide an feedback control signal; and perform a combinator algorithm using the reference signal, the plant feedback signal and the feedback control signal to provide the input signal to the controller; wherein the voter is configured to receive the output signals and perform a voting algorithm on the output signals to determine a control signal to provide to the external plant.
