A near-optimal gain-scheduling strategy for the morphing aircraft flight control design is proposed. Nonlinear parameter-dependent dynamics of the morphing aircraft is transformed into a quasi-linear parameter-varying form. Assuming that the morphing parameters are determined in an outer-loop to meet system requirements, an inner-loop controller is designed by optimal control scheme. An algebraic Riccati equation using the parameter-dependent coefficient matrices is solved to design a near-optimal controller. Numerical simulation is performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
