A new nonlinear adaptive control scheme based on the immersion and invariance theory is presented to achieve robust velocity and altitude tracking for hypersonic vehicles with parametric uncertainty. The longitudinal dynamics of the hypersonic vehicle are first decomposed into velocity, altitude/flight-path angle, and angle of attack/pitch rate subsystems. Then a non-certainty-equivalent controller based on immersion and invariance, consisting of a control module and a parameter estimator, is designed for each subsystem with all the aerodynamic parameters unknown. The main feature of this method lies in the construction of the estimator, which is a sum of a partial estimate generated from the update law and an additional nonlinear term. The new term is capable of assigning appointed stable dynamics to the parameter estimate error. Stability analysis is presented using Lyapunov theory and shows asymptotical convergence of the tracking error to zero. Representative simulations are performed. Rapid and accurate command tracking is demonstrated in these numerical simulations, which illustrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed approach.
