A sliding-mode guidance (SMG) law is designed to intercept maneuvering targets with impact angle constrained flight trajectories under the assumption of ideal missile autopilot. Furthermore, accounting for the autopilot as second-order dynamics, a new guidance law with terminal impact angle constraint is designed using the dynamic surface control method. Some first-order low-pass filters are introduced into the designing process to avoid the occurrence of high-order derivatives of the line of sight (LOS) angle in the expression of the guidance law such that the guidance law can be implemented in practical applications. The proposed guidance law is effective in compensating for the second-order autopilot lag. Simulation results show that it is able to guide a missile to impact a maneuvering target with a desired angle and a small miss distance.

Accounting for the autopilot as second-order dynamics, an observer-based guidance law with terminal impact angle constraint is designed using the dynamic surface control method. Some first-order low-pass filters are introduced into the designing process to avoid the occurrence of high-order derivatives of the line of sight (LOS) angle in the expression of the guidance law such that the guidance law can be implemented in practical applications. The proposed guidance law is effective in compensating for the second-order autopilot lag. In simulation of intercepting targets with sinusoidal acceleration, the guidance law is compared with the biased proportional navigation guidance (BPNG) law in the presence of missile autopilot lag. Simulation results show that the proposed observer-based guidance law with terminal impact angle constraint is able to guide a missile with large autopilot lag to impact a target with a desired angle and achieve a small miss distance, even if the target escapes in a great and fast maneuver.

Aiming at the requirement that some missiles need to meet certain impact angles when attacking targets, we consider the second-order dynamic characteristics of autopilot, thereby proposing a second-order sliding mode guidance law with impact angle constraint. Firstly, based on the terminal sliding mode control, we design a fast nonsingular terminal sliding mode guidance law with impact angle constraint. Based on the second-order sliding mode control, a second-order sliding mode guidance law with impact angle constraint is proposed. We have proved its finite time convergence characteristics and presented the specific convergence time expression. Subsequently, the dynamic characteristics of the autopilot are approximated to the second-order link. Combined with the dynamic surface control theory, we proposed a second-order sliding mode guidance law considering the second-order dynamic characteristics of the autopilot and proved its finite-time convergence characteristics. Finally, the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed guidance law are verified by comparative simulation experiments.

To solve the multi-interceptor coordination problem and to intercept the target with impact angle constraint, a novel distributed cooperative control algorithm with impact angle constraint based on integrated guidance and control is proposed. First, the mathematic model of integrated guidance and control is established by combining the interceptor-target relative motion model with the dynamic equation of the interceptor on pitch plane. The time varying gain extended state observer is developed to estimate and compensate the unknown disturbance. Based on the estimated value and fast nonsingular dynamic surface sliding control method, the IGC algorithm of leader is given; Then, based on distributed cooperative "leader-follower" model, the cooperative control strategy of multi-interceptor is designed, and gives out speeds in two directions on pitch plane, which are transformed to the command of total velocity and trajectory angle based on kinematic relations. Finally, to control the follower, the time varying gain extended state observer and the dynamic surface sliding control method are adopted. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the distributed cooperative control algorithm.

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.
