In this paper, a novel multi-stage trajectory transfer and fixed-point landing time optimal guidance method for the lunar surface emergency rescue mission is proposed. Firstly, the whole process motion and dynamics model for the lunar surface emergency rescue with four stages are established. Then, in the initial orbit transfer phase, the Lambert algorithm based on "prediction + correction" is designed for the non spherical gravitational perturbation of the moon. In the powered descent phase, the Hamiltonian function is used to design a time suboptimal explicit guidance law that can be applied in orbit in real time. Finally, aiming at the multi-stage global time optimal guidance, the whole time process guidance law is obtained by establishing the allowable control set for each stage in the whole process. The simulation results show that compared with the piecewise optimal control method, the present method has better optimization effect and shorter whole process time. It is of great significance to the possible emergency rescue mission of manned lunar exploration in the future.

This paper presents the nonstationary nonmaneuvering target interception with all possible desired impact angles in a two-dimensional (2D) aerial engagement scenario, where the target can move in any direction. The paper also considers the field-of-view (FOV) constraint for designing the guidance law so that the target is always visible while following the missile trajectory in the entire engagement time, which makes it feasible for real world applications. The guidance law is based on the pure proportional navigation (PPN) to achieve any impact angle of the entire angular spectrum. The proposed guidance law is then simulated for intercepting a nonstationary nonmaneuvering target using a kinematic model of a missile to demonstrate the efficacy of the presented scheme. A comparison with the related work existing in the literature has also been added to establish the superiority of the present work.

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.

To study the optimal impact-angle-control guidance problem with multiple terminal constraints, a generalized optimal impact-angle-control guidance law with terminal acceleration response constraint (GOIACGL-TARC) is proposed. In the deriving, a time-to-go − nth power weighted object function is adopted to derived the GOIACGL-TARC and a general expression of GOIACGL-TARC is presented. Based on the general expression of GOIACGL-TARC, three guidance laws, GOIACGL-TARC1/TACC0/TACC1 are proposed and the inheritance relationship between GOIACGL-TACC0/TACC1/TARC1 and the conventional optimal guidance law with impact angle constraint is demonstrated. Performance analysis of the proposed guidance laws shows that in the case of GOIACGL-TACC0, the terminal acceleration is not zero at n = 0 and only as n > 0, the terminal acceleration converges to zero; in the case of GOIACGL-TACC1 and GOIACGL-TARC1, GOIACGL-TARC1 can guarantee the acceleration response to reach the exactly zero value but GOIACGL-TACC1 cannot, which can only guarantee the acceleration command to reach the exactly zero value. It is pointed out that compared with the biased proportional navigation guidance law, GOIACGL-TARC1 has an outstanding guidance performance in acceleration response, miss distance, and terminal impact angle error.

In this paper, we provide a practical solution to the generalized optimal guidance problem with an impact angle constraint. The optimal guidance problem with arbitrary weighting functions is extended to explicitly consider a missile dynamic lag effect as well as a missile velocity variation. Therefore, compared to existing results, the proposed result can prevent performance degradation due to the dynamic lag effect and the velocity variation, which is an essential issue in practice. Besides, since the proposed guidance law is formulated from the generalized optimal control framework, it can directly inherit a vital feature of the framework: providing an additional degree of freedom in shaping a guidance command for achieving a specific guidance operational goal. An illustrative example is provided in order to validate this property. In this study, the proposed solution is also compared with the existing solutions. The comparison results indicate that the proposed result is a more general and practical solution. Finally, numerical simulations are also conducted to demonstrate the practical significance of the proposed method.
