The control of the pitch angle of an aircraft by classical and fuzzy controllers

In this study, different types of controllers are designed to control an aircraft's pitch angle. Pitch angle control is an important issue in terms of safety and passenger comfort during cruise. In this study, flight control systems with P, PI, PD, PID and fuzzy controllers are designed for pitch angle control. Then, the simulation results of systems with classical and fuzzy controllers are compared. It's observed that the controllers have both advantages and disadvantages when compared to each other and fuzzy controllers have the best performance in all cases among.
