Current Status of Experimental Winged Rocket Development

摘要：

The Space Systems Laboratory of Kyutech (Kyushu Institute of Technology) has been studying unmanned suborbital winged rocket as a research subject of future fully reusable space transportation system since 2005. There are still a lot of engineering issues with regard to flexible and robust automatic flight system. The flight experiments of a smallscaled experimental winged rocket were conducted since 2008 aiming at evaluation of fundamental aerodynamic design, flight characteristics, navigation, guidance and control performance. So far the small-scaled winged rocket has been launched five times, the flight data has been measured successfully. The current experimental rockets under development by Kyutech have a body length of 1.5m, and weigh about 50kg. INS-GPS-ADS (Inertial Navigation System/Global Positioning System/Air Data System) hybrid navigation algorithm, real time GA (Genetic Algorithm) guidance algorithm, and attitude control based on H∞, and adaptive control theory are the main research issues for demonstration using winged rockets. This paper summarizes the recent flight test results and introduces current status of the project.
