This article deals with the problem of partial integrated guidance and control (IGC) design with fixed-time convergence. First of all, two new fixed-time stability systems are proposed, and a novel nonsingular terminal sliding mode with fixed-time convergence is constructed by switching the exponential term of system state variables, which can realize the transition from finite-time convergence to fixed-time convergence. Concurrently, in order to solve the singular problem of terminal sliding mode, a continuous piecewise function is used in the sliding mode surface design. Then, a novel nonsingular terminal sliding mode control with fixed-time convergence is proposed for partial IGC design; that is, the upper-bound of convergence time is independent of the initial states of both missile and target and can be set in advance. In addition, a radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) is used to adaptively estimate and compensate for the uncertainties caused by the target’s maneuvering, so that the design of fixed-time sliding mode controller does not need to know any information about the target maneuver in advance, which enables the proposed controller to be better with robustness. Finally, the effectiveness and merits of the proposed control strategy are shown by the numerical simulation results based on the nonlinear longitudinal model of missile.
