It has been shown that the use of parameter-adaptive control techniques can be a highly effective way of maintaining a specified level of tracking performance by compensating for plant parameter variations. This offers the potential for increased fidelity for in-flight simulations. The effectiveness of the adaptive controller has been demonstrated by designing a digital, fast-sampling tracker controller in an explicit model-following configuration. Further extensions to this research are planned, including the identification of non-linear models, command limiting schemes, control reconfiguration strategies, and the use of multiple-model moving bank estimator techniques. It was assumed for this investigation that the parameters for the fixed portion of the difference equation model (representative of the current flight condition).
