Abstract
A system for use in generating a command trajectory for an aircraft is provided. The system includes a natural frequency determining module configured to determine a closure rate of the aircraft to a selected flight path, compare the closure rate of the aircraft to a threshold closure rate, and calculate a natural frequency based on whether the closure rate is below the threshold closure rate. The system further includes a command processor coupled to the natural frequency determining module and configured to receive the calculated natural frequency from the natural frequency determining module, and generate a command trajectory using the calculated natural frequency.
