Different methods for the design of controllers for active vibration isolation on helicopters are investigated. Based on the special structure of the controller, compensation for the rotor blade harmonic disturbance vibrations is achieved, guaranteeing good trim behavior during maneuvers. For the first controller design, done for a rigid helicopter fuselage with a modified Riccati design, different sensor configurations are investigated. A possibility for sensitivity reduction for rotor speed variations is shown. For the second controller design for an elastic helicopter fuselage the modified Riccati design, the design by means of Nyquist plots and pole assignment are investigated, especially with respect to the applicability for higher order systems.
