Research Interest:
Aerospace systems require advanced control techniques to ensure reliable performance, fault tolerance, and precision in dynamic environments. This research presents a novel interval observer-based control strategy designed for fault detection, state estimation, and adaptive control in aerospace applications. Interval observers provide real-time monitoring with guaranteed error bounds, enhancing resilience against disturbances, sensor uncertainties, and system uncertainties. By integrating adaptive control techniques, the proposed framework improves system stability, response time, and robustness under varying operational conditions. Compared to traditional observer-based methods, this approach offers faster fault isolation, enhanced estimation accuracy, and computational efficiency, making it suitable for flight dynamics, navigation, and autonomous aerial systems. Simulation and experimental validations demonstrate the method’s effectiveness in reducing error margins, increasing fault detection sensitivity, and ensuring reliable system performance. These findings contribute to next-generation aerospace control frameworks, aligning with the industry’s demand for intelligent and autonomous aerospace technologies.
