Synthesis of an optimal algorithm for angular stabilization by predictive model

An optimal control law for the angular stabilization of a flying vehicle represented by an axisymmetric body is synthesized in analytical form by the predictive model technique [V. A. Detistov and V. N. Taran, Avtomat, Telemekh., No. 10, 46-56 (1990) and V. N. Taran, Avtomat. Telemekh., No. 8, 101-108 (1991)]. An example is given to corroborate the advantage of the law over the numerically synthesized law for a similar object [V. A. Detistov and V. N. Taran, Avtomat. Telemekh., No. 10, 46-56 (1990)].
