Multistage launch vehicles of reduced size, such as “Super Strypi” or “Sword”, are currently investigated for the purpose of providing launch opportunities for microsatellites. Currently, microsatellites can be launched according to the time and orbital requirements of a main payload. The limited costs of microsatellites and their capability to be produced and ready for use in short time make...

The aim of the paper is to present a new design methodology for the automatic flight control system of launch vehicles using discrete-time RST controllers. The structure of such a control system has three degrees of freedom (roll, yaw, pitch), determined such that the closed-loop dynamics of the launch vehicle tracks the output of a desired reference model. The RST control technique focuses on...
