Abstract
This paper considers the use of sensitivity and error analysis algorithms for combined estimation and control systems to conduct trade-off studies for sensor equipment packages for a simple longitudinal inal motion VTOL hover controller. Simulation results indicate that in many problems the extra effort expended in model identification ation is justified in order to reduce the sensitivity of the system performance to implementation tolerances. The results of the hover controller design problem demonstrate the use of the algorithms as an aid in design decision making.Keywords
