ABSTRACT:
The gust alleviation system was designed to be an add-on to any existing g-command flight control system. The system assumes that there already exists, a stability augmentation system which will hold the aircraft's attitude. This system minimizes the interaction of the gust alleviation system with the existing flight control system. The gust alleviation system picks off the stick displacement signal and the aircraft normal acceleration sensor signal and processes this information. The outputs of the gust alleviation system are added back respectively to the existing flap command signal and the aircraft's original stability augmentation loop.
