Retuning the actuator proportional–integral–derivative controller of spinning missiles

Abstract

The hinge moment acting on the actuator will cause an out-of-plane moment, which is a destabilizing factor to the angular motion of spinning missiles. A new tuning criterion for the actuator controller is proposed to decrease the out-of-plane moment. It is noted that the integral element does not decrease the out-of-plane moment. A carefully designed proportional–derivative controller with some compromises can ensure the stability of the missile and provide good performance for the actuator.
