A new design method for trajectory shaping guidance laws with the impact angle constraint is proposed in this study. The basic idea is that the multiplier introduced to combine the equations for the terminal constraints is used to shape a flight trajectory as desired. To this end, the general form of impact angle control guidance (IACG) is first derived as a function of an arbitrary constraint-combining multiplier using the optimal control. We reveal that the constraint-combining multiplier satisfying the kinematics can be expressed as a function of state variables. From this result, the constraint-combining multiplier to achieve a desired trajectory can be obtained. Accordingly, when the desired trajectory is designed to satisfy the terminal constraints, the proposed method directly can provide a closed form of IACG laws that can achieve the desired trajectory. The potential significance of the proposed result is that various trajectory shaping IACG laws that can cope with various guidance goals can be readily determined compared to existing approaches. In this study, several examples are shown to validate the proposed method. The results also indicate that previous IACG laws belong to the subset of the proposed result. Finally, the characteristics of the proposed guidance laws are analyzed through numerical simulations.

The implementation of advanced guidance laws with bearings-only measurements requires estimation of the range information. To improve estimation accuracy and satisfy the impact angle constraint, this paper proposes a two-phase optimal guidance law consisting of an observing phase and an attacking phase. In the observing phase, the determinant of Fisher information matrix is maximized to achieve the optimal observability and a suboptimal solution expressed by leading angle is derived analytically. Then, a terminal sliding-mode guidance law is designed to track the desired leading angle. In the followed attacking phase, an optimal guidance law is integrated with a switching term to satisfy both the impact angle constraint and the field-of-view constraint. Finally, comparison studies of the proposed guidance law and a traditional optimal guidance law are conducted on stationary targets and maneuvering targets cases. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed guidance law is able to improve the range observability and achieve better terminal performances including impact angle accuracy and miss distance.

This paper investigates the three-dimensional guidance with the impact angle constraint, actuator faults and input constraint. Firstly, an adaptive three-dimensional guidance law with impact angle constraint is designed by using the terminal sliding mode control and nonhomogeneous disturbance observer. Then, in order to solve the problem of the input saturation and actuator faults, an adaptive anti-saturation fault-tolerant three-dimensional law is proposed by using the hyperbolic tangent function based on the passive fault-tolerant control. Finally, the effectiveness of the designed guidance laws is verified by using the Lyapunov function and simulation.

A guidance problem for impact time and angle control applicable to cooperative attack is considered based on the sliding mode control. In order to satisfy the impact angle constraint, a line-of-sight rate polynomial function is introduced with four tuning parameters. And the time-to-go derivative with respect to a downrange orientation is derived to minimize the impact time error. Then the sliding mode control surface with impact time and angle constraints is constructed using nonlinear engagement dynamics to provide an accurate solution. The proposed guidance law is easily extended to a nonmaneuvering target using the predicted interception point. Numerical simulations are performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed guidance law for different engagement scenarios.

A new nonlinear robust guidance law was proposed by considering autopilot dynamics. Firstly, the mathematic model was built according to relationship between target and missile in vertical plane, by introducing the one-order dynamics of autopilot in Mechanical Engineering. Secondly, the nonlinear terminal guidance was obtained by applying the H∞ control theory under the performance index of minimizing the terminal angular constraint tracking error and control energy, and the asymptotic stability of guidance system was strictly proven by Lyapunov stability theory avoiding the estimation of the time-to-go. Finally, an illustrative example was given to show that the guidance law was more robust and both the impact angle and guidance precision were met in the case of no any target information.

This paper proposes a guidance strategy, which caters to both impact angle and impact time terminal constraints. This guidance scheme is based on switching between impact time and impact angle guidance laws. Unlike the existing impact time guidance laws, the proposed guidance strategy takes into account the curvature of the trajectory due to requirement of impact angle. The guidance law is derived using sliding mode control theory with the switching surface based on impact time error. The interceptor first corrects its course to nullify the impact time error and then aims to achieve interception with desired impact angle. In order to reduce transitions between the two guidance laws, a novel hysteresis loop is introduced in the switching conditions. The guidance law is initially designed for stationary targets, and later it is extended to constant velocity targets using the notion of predicted interception point. In order to validate the efficacy of the proposed guidance strategy, simulation results are presented with constant as well as realistic time-varying speed interceptor models for different engagement scenarios against stationary and constant velocity targets. The performance of the guidance law is evaluated under noisy measurements and the presence of system lag and its performance is compared with other existing guidance laws.

Abstract The cooperative guidance problem of multiple inferior missiles intercepting a hypersonic target with the specific impact angle constraint in the two-dimensional plane is addressed in this paper, taking into consideration variations in a missile’s speed. The guidance law is designed with two subsystems: the direction of line-of-sight (LOS) and the direction of normal to LOS. In the direction of LOS, by applying the algebraic graph theory and the consensus theory, the guidance command is designed to make the system convergent in a finite time to satisfy the goal of cooperative interception. In the direction of normal to LOS, the impact angle is constrained to transform into the LOS angle at the time of interception. In view of the difficulty of measuring unknown target acceleration information in real scenarios, the guidance command is designed by utilising a super-twisting algorithm based on a nonsingular fast-terminal sliding mode (NFTSM) surface. Numerical simulation results manifest that the proposed guidance law performs efficiently and the guidance commands are free of chattering. In addition, the overall performance of this guidance law is assessed with Monte Carlo runs in the presence of measurement errors. The simulation results demonstrate that the robustness can be guaranteed, and that overall efficiency and accuracy in intercepting the hypersonic target are achieved.

An impact angle control guidance law is proposed for stationary target interception considering missile's field-of-view limit and speed changes. The proposed impact angle control guidance law is structured as a biased proportional navigation with a time-varying bias. The proposed guidance law does not involve any switching logic for maintaining lock-on; hence, the guidance command is continuous during the entire engagement. Unlike the most existing studies, the proposed method guarantees that the impact angle error converges to zero before interception without the constant-speed assumption. To realize these desirable properties, the positive invariance of the bounded look angle interval and the change of independent variable are utilized. Numerical simulations are conducted to demonstrate the performance of the proposed guidance law.

To provide a feasible solution for a variable speed unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to home on a target with impact time and angle constraints, this paper presents a novel geometry-based guidance law composed of trajectory reshaping and tracking. A trajectory generation process using Bezier curves is introduced to satisfy the impact time and angle constraints under time-varying speed. The impact angle is satisfied by driving the UAV along a specified ending line. The impact time is satisfied by controlling the trajectory length, which is realized through adjusting one Bezier curve end point along the ending line. The adjustable range of this end point, along with the maximum trajectory curvature, is analyzed to ensure that the trajectory is flyable. Guidance command is generated using inverse dynamics. Numerical simulations under various scenarios are demonstrated to illustrate the performance and validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
