The NASA Lewis Research Center approach to developing integrated flight propulsion control (IFPC) technologies is an in-house research program referred to as IMPAC-Integrated Methodology for Propulsion and Airframe Control. The goals of IMPAC are to develop a viable alternative to the existing integrated control design methodologies that will allow for improved system performance and simplicity of control law synthesis and implementation, and to demonstrate the applicability of the methodology to a supersonic STOVL fighter aircraft. An overview of IMPAC is presented, including a detailed discussion of the various important design and evaluation steps in the methodology.
