Paper Abstract
In this paper, we discuss various aspects of the control and sensing in a flexible wing aircraft using embedded
LPFG (Long Period Fiber Grating). Driven by the need to improve aerodynamic efficiency and reduce fuel
burn, interest in light-weight structures for next generation aircraft has been on the rise. However, in order to
fully exploit novel lightweight structures, there is a critical need for distributed sensing along the entire wing
span and its integration with closed-loop control systems. A model of an LPFG sensor string embedded in an
Euler-Bernoulli beam is proposed along with an associated control algorithm.
