This article presents the reconfigurable flight controller using an adaptive sliding mode control scheme for actuator fault case. Sliding mode controller, which has good performance for the systems with various uncertainties, is used to deal with the actuator faults. Actuator fault can be considered as a disturbance or an unexpected parameter change, which degrades the system performance and may destabilize the system. In this study, the adaptive sliding mode control technique is adopted to compensate the effects of the disturbance generated by actuator faults. Lyapunov stability theory is used to derive the adaptive rule, and the closed-loop system stability analysis is performed. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller, numerical simulation is performed for aircraft having redundant control surfaces.
