Servo System Design using Compensation Scheme for Engine Gimbal Control of Launch Vehicle

Suchitra P

The launch vehicle is steered in pitch, yaw and roll directions by means of thrust vector control of servo actuators of Engine Gimbal Control (EGC) System that provides precise steering for the missile platform. The EGC actuation system is widely used for the thrust vectoring of liquid propellant engines of launch vehicle, that carry a payload from earth’s surface to outer space. This paper deals with the compensator design methodology suitable for the EMA based position servo system, so as to meet the desired frequency and time domain requirements of the EGC system. It involves servo analysis, linear modeling and compensator design of the electromechanical actuation system. Linear model of a servo actuation system is has been developed and design of compensator is carried out so as to meet, the requirements of launch vehicle EGC system. The simulation results are presented using MATLAB/SIMULINK as the simulation tool.
