A state feedback control law has been derived in Part I [1] of this two-part paper on the basis of an augmented plant model [2, 3, 4] that accounts for the randomly varying delays induced by the network in Integrated Communication and Control Systems (ICCS). The control algorithm was formulated as a linear quadratic regulator problem and then solved using the principle of dynamic programming and optimality. This paper, which is the second of two parts, presents (i) a numerical procedure for synthesizing the control parameters and (ii) results of simulation experiments for verification of the above control law using the flight dynamic model of an advanced aircraft. This two-part paper is concluded with recommendations for future work.
