Abstract: An optimal input design technique for aircraft parameter estimation is presented in this paper. The original idea is the combination of a dynamic programming method with a gradient algorithm for the optimal input synthesis. This approach allows to include realistic practical constraints on the input and output variables. A description of this approach is presented, followed by an example concerning an aircraft longitudinal flight. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
