Abstract: Frequency multiplexed command signaling that permits a single pilot command interface (e.g. control stick) to serve as a multiple response mode interface for piloting a craft conforms with natural interface operation of most pilots. Highly augmented modes receive lower frequency components of the command signaling, and less augmented modes receive higher frequency components. This avoids the requirement for pilots to switch response modes. An embodying control system can be produced by running feedback control loops encoding the respective response modes in parallel, and multiplexing the command signaling to each response mode, filtering each copy of the command signaling respectively according the respective feedback control loop, and then combining the output of each feedback control loop to compute actuation demand.

Abstract: Frequency multiplexed command signaling that permits a single pilot command interface (e.g. control stick) to serve as a multiple response mode interface for piloting a craft conforms with natural interface operation of most pilots. Highly augmented modes receive lower frequency components of the command signaling, and less augmented modes receive higher frequency components. This avoids the requirement for pilots to switch response modes. An embodying control system can be produced by miming feedback control loops encoding the respective response modes in parallel, and multiplexing the command signaling to each response mode, filtering each copy of the command signaling respectively according the respective feedback control loop, and then combining the output of each feedback control loop to compute actuation demand.
