In future naval warfare, the accurate attack of underwater intelligent vehicles on targets will become more and more important. Therefore, it is very important to study the guiding method which has the key influence on tracking targets. In the guidance process of intelligent navigation system, the estimation of guidance information by the agent is influenced by confrontation and interference, which often results in the decrease of the guidance accuracy of UUV under the single guidance law. In this paper, the estimated information is classified according to the different types of guidance target information combining to the advantages of three guidance methods, namely fixed advance angle, extended proportional guidance law and adaptive sliding mode guidance law. Then the fuzzy weight coefficient calculation method is used to get the weight coefficients of all kinds of information to form the adaptive weighted guidance law. The target tracking effects of each guidance method is simulated and compared in the simulation environment of the target maneuver and the target non-maneuver respectively.

Localization and navigation not only serve to provide positioning and route guidance information for users, but also are important inputs for vehicle control. This paper investigates the possibility of using odometry to estimate the position and orientation of a vehicle with a wheel individual steering system in omnidirectional parking maneuvers. Vehicle models and sensors have been identified for this application. Several odometry versions are designed using a modular approach, which was developed in this paper to help users to design state estimators. Different odometry versions have been implemented and validated both in the simulation environment and in real driving tests. The evaluated results show that the versions using more models and using state variables in models provide both more accurate and more robust estimation.

This paper presents an adaptive fixed-time guidance law for the three-dimensional interception guidance problem with impact angle constraints and control input saturation against a maneuvering target. First, a coupled guidance model formulated by the relative motion equation is established. On this basis, a fixed-time disturbance observer is employed to estimate the lumped disturbances. With the help of this estimation technique, the adaptive fixed-time sliding mode guidance law is designed to accomplish accurate interception. The stability of the closed-loop guidance system is proven by the Lyapunov method. Simulation results of different scenarios are executed to validate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed guidance law.

Abstract Target manoeuvre is one of the key factors affecting guidance accuracy. To intercept highly maneuverable targets, a second-order sliding-mode guidance law, which is based on the super-twisting algorithm, is designed without depending on any information about the target motion. In the designed guidance system, the target estimator plays an essential role. Besides the existing higher-order sliding-mode observer (HOSMO), a first-order linear observer (FOLO) is also proposed to estimate the target manoeuvre, and this is the major contribution of this paper. The closed-loop guidance system can be guaranteed to be uniformly ultimately bounded (UUB) in the presence of the FOLO. The comparative simulations are carried out to investigate the overall performance resulting from these two categories of observers. The results show that the guidance law with the proposed linear observer can achieve better comprehensive criteria for the amplitude of normalised acceleration and elevator deflection requirements. The reasons for the different levels of performance of these two observer-based methods are thoroughly investigated.

The statistical analyses in the past showing the important properties of the electrohydraulic actuator (EHA) system, especially in the growth of the world economy. Dealing with the existing drawback in the EHA system, various types of control schemes have been introduced in the past. In this paper, to produce a more insightful view of the performance and the capabilities of the controller, three different types of controllers have been designed and compared. The favourite controller in the industry field, which is the proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller will be first introduced. Follow by the improved PID controller, named Fractional Order (FO-PID) controller will be designed. Then, the prominent robust controller in the control field, called sliding mode controller (SMC) will be established. Instead of obtaining the controller’s parameters without any appropriate technique, the well-known tuning technique in computer science, named particle swarm optimization (PSO) will be utilized. Referring to the performances produced by these controllers, it can be concluded that the SMC is capable to generate most desired control performance that produced the highest accuracy with the smallest error in the analyses.

In this paper, for the three-dimensional terminal guidance problem of a missile intercepting a manoeuvring target, a robust continuous guidance law with impact angle constraints in the presence of both an acceleration saturation constraint and a second-order-lag autopilot is developed. First, based on non-singular fast terminal sliding mode and adaptive control, a step-by-step backstepping method is used to design the guidance law. In the process of guidance law design, with the use of a finite-time control technique, virtual control laws are developed, a tracking differentiator is used to eliminate the ‘explosion of complexity’ problem inherent in the traditional backstepping method, and an additional system is constructed to deal with the acceleration saturation problem; its states are used for guidance law design and stability analysis. Moreover, the target acceleration is considered bounded disturbance, but the upper bound is not required to be known in advance, whereas the upper bound is estimated online by a designed adaptive law. Next, finite-time stability of the guidance system is strictly proved by using a Lyapunov method. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the excellent guidance performances of the proposed guidance law in terms of accuracy and efficiency.
