A new distributed optimal autopilot for aircraft flight control is presented. A parallel processing approach is taken where the longitudinal and lateral motions with cross coupling effects are handled in different processors. The proposed control algorithm is implemented on a T800 transputer network programmed using parallel C, and it is shown that real time performance is possible.
