Control Technology of Master-Master Working Mode for Advanced Aircraft Dual-Redundancy Electro-Hydrostatic Flight Control Actuation System

In response to the demands for high reliability, excellent dynamic response, and high-precision control of advanced aircraft actuation systems, this study focuses on the control technology for the master-master operating mode of dual-redundancy electro-hydrostatic actuation (EHA) systems. A multi-domain coupling model integrating motor magnetic circuit saturation, hydraulic viscosity-temperature characteristics, and mechanical clearances was established, based on which a current-loop decoupling technique using vector control was developed. Furthermore, the study combined adaptive sliding mode control (ASMC) and an improved active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) to enhance the robustness of the speed loop and the disturbance rejection capability of the position loop, respectively. To address the key challenges of synchronous error accumulation and uneven load distribution in the master-master mode, a dual-redundancy dynamic model accounting for hydraulic coupling effects was developed, and a two-level cooperative control strategy of "position synchronization-dynamic load balancing" was proposed based on the cross-coupling control (CCC) framework. Experimental results demonstrate that the position loop control error is less than ±0.02 mm, and the load distribution accuracy is improved to over 97%, fully meeting the design requirements of advanced aircraft. These findings provide key technical support for the engineering application of power-by-wire flight control systems in advanced aircraft.

Abstract

In response to the demands for high reliability, excellent dynamic response, and high-precision control of advanced aircraft actuation systems, this study focuses on the control technology for the master-master operating mode of dual-redundancy electro-hydrostatic actuation (EHA) systems. A multi-domain coupling model integrating motor magnetic circuit saturation, hydraulic viscosity-temperature characteristics, and mechanical clearances was established, based on which a current-loop decoupling technique using vector control was developed. Furthermore, the study combined adaptive sliding mode control (ASMC) and an improved active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) to enhance the robustness of the speed loop and the disturbance rejection capability of the position loop, respectively. To address the key challenges of synchronous error accumulation and uneven load distribution in the master-master mode, a dual-redundancy dynamic model accounting for hydraulic coupling effects was developed, and a two-level cooperative control strategy of "position synchronization-dynamic load balancing" was proposed based on the cross-coupling control (CCC) framework. Experimental results demonstrate that the position loop control error is less than ±0.02 mm, and the load distribution accuracy is improved to over 97%, fully meeting the design requirements of advanced aircraft. These findings provide key technical support for the engineering application of power-by-wire flight control systems in advanced aircraft.
