Guidance laws for attacking defended target

In this paper, two new guidance laws based on differential game theory are proposed and investigated for the attacker in an attacker-defender-target scenario.The conditions for the attacker winning the game are analyzed when the target and defender using the differential game guidance law based on the linear model.The core ideas underlying the two guidance laws are the attacker evading to a critical safe boundary from the defender, and then maintaining a critical miss distance.The guidance law more appropriate for the attacker to win the game differs according to the initial parameters.Unlike other guidance laws, when using the derived guidance laws there is no need to know the target and the defender's control efforts.The results of numerical simulations show that the attacker can evade the defender and hit the target successfully by using the proposed derived guidance laws.     

Optimal guidance against active defense ballistic missiles via differential game strategies

The optimal guidance problem for an interceptor against a ballistic missile with active defense is investigated in this paper. A class of optimal guidance schemes are proposed based on linear quadratic differential game method and numerical solution of Riccati differential equation. By choosing proper parameters, the proposed guidance schemes are able to drive the interceptor to the target and away from the defender simultaneously. Additionally, fuel cost, control saturation, chattering phenomenon and parameters selection were taken into account. Satisfaction of the proposed guidance schemes of the saddle point condition is proven theoretically. Finally, nonlinear numerical examples are included to demonstrate the effectiveness and performance of the developed guidance approaches. Comparison of control performance between different guidance schemes are presented and analysis.     

Cooperative differential games guidance laws for multiple attackers against an active defense target

This paper is concerned with a scenario of multiple attackers trying to intercept a target with active defense. Three types of agents are considered in the guidance: The multiple attackers, the target and the defender, where the attackers aim to pursuit the target from different directions and evade from the defender simultaneously. The guidance engagement is formulated in the framework of a zero-sum two-person differential game between the two opposing teams, such that the measurements on the m...     

Linear Quadratic Differential Game Strategies with Two-pursuit Versus Single-evader

In order to intercept the future targets that are characterized by high maneuverability, multiple interceptors may be launched and aimed at single target. The scenario of two missiles P and Q intercepting a single target is modeled as a two-pursuit single-evader non-zero-sum linear quadratic differential game. The intercept space is decomposed into three subspaces which are mutually disjoint and their union covers the entire intercept space. The effect of adding the second interceptor arises in the intercept space of both P and Q (PQ-intercept space). A guidance law is derived from the Nash equilibrium strategy set (NESS) of the game. Simulation studies are focused on the PQ-intercept space. It is indicated that 1) increasing the target’s maneuverability will enlarge PQ-intercept space; 2) the handover conditions will be released if the initial zero-effort-miss (ZEM) of both interceptors has opposite sign; 3) overvaluation of the target’s maneuverability by choosing a small weight coefficient will generate robust performance with respect to the target maneuvering command switch time and decrease the fuel requirement; and 4) cooperation between interceptors increases the interception probability.     

An Adaptive Weighted Differential Game Guidance Law

For intercepting modern high maneuverable targets, a novel adaptive weighted differential game guidance law based on the game theory of mixed strategy is proposed, combining two guidance laws which are derived from the perfect and imperfect information pattern, respectively. The weights vary according to the estimated error of the target’s acceleration, the guidance law is generated by directly using the estimation of target’s acceleration when the estimated error is small, and a differential game guidance law with adaptive penalty coefficient is implemented when the estimated error is large. The adaptive penalty coefficients are not constants and they can be adjusted with current target maneuverability. The superior homing performance of the new guidance law is verified by computer simulations.

基于控制变量参数化的主动反拦截突防最优控制计算方法

针对由于敌防空系统防御能力不断提高所带来的进攻导弹突防难题,提出主动反拦截突防(IAIP)的概念,以弥补传统机动突防仅考虑进攻导弹的逃逸而忽略其攻击任务的缺陷。根据IAIP制导的内涵,在综合考虑目标的机动性能、拦截导弹末段的拦截特性及进攻导弹的控制系统性能的基础上,建立进攻导弹-目标-拦截导弹的三体运动模型。将突防制导指令的设计等效为最优控制的求解,其中突防指令为实现燃料最省目标的最优解,进攻导弹的过载、拦截导弹的脱靶量、进攻导弹的攻击角、打击精度和突防后的视线角,分别为控制约束、路径约束和末端约束。借鉴控制变量参数化(CVP)方法将最优控制问题转化为非线性数学规划问题,并将路径约束离散化后采用序列二次规划(SQP)算法得到突防时机给定条件下制导指令的数值解。提出基于CVP的混合遗传算法(CVP-GA),用于求解最优突防时机及制导指令。仿真结果显示,采用IAIP最优控制算法的进攻导弹在成功突防后的打击精度仍可满足任务要求,且其燃料消耗相对于传统串联式突防方法降低了23.7%,验证了该方法的有效性及优越性。

Optimal guidance of extended trajectory shaping

To control missile＇s miss distance as well as terminal impact angle, by involving the timeto-go-nth power in the cost function, an extended optimal guidance law against a constant maneuvering target or a stationary target is proposed using the linear quadratic optimal control theory.An extended trajectory shaping guidance（ETSG） law is then proposed under the assumption that the missile-target relative velocity is constant and the line of sight angle is small. For a lag-free ETSG system, closed-form solutions for the missile＇s acceleration command are derived by the method of Schwartz inequality and linear simulations are performed to verify the closed-form results. Normalized adjoint systems for miss distance and terminal impact angle error are presented independently for stationary targets and constant maneuvering targets, respectively. Detailed discussions about the terminal misses and impact angle errors induced by terminal impact angle constraint, initial heading error, seeker zero position errors and target maneuvering, are performed.

Optimal terminal guidance for exoatmospheric interception

In this study, two optimal terminal guidance (OTG) laws, one of which takes into account the final velocity vector constraint, are developed for exoatmospheric interception using optimal control theory. In exoatmospheric interception, because the proposed guidance laws give full consideration to the effect of gravity, they consume much less fuel than the traditional guidance laws while requiring a light computational load. In the development of the guidance laws, a unified optimal guidance problem is put forward, where the final velocity vector constraint can be consid-ered or neglected by properly adjusting a parameter in the cost function. To make this problem ana-lytically solvable, a linear model is used to approximate the gravity difference, the difference of the gravitational accelerations of the target and interceptor. Additionally, an example is provided to show that some achievements of this study can be used to significantly improve the fuel efficiency of the pulsed guidance employed by the interceptor whose divert thrust level is fixed.

Impact point prediction guidance based on iterative process for dual-spin projectile with fixed canards

The fixed canards configuration of a dual-spin projectile makes it difficult to apply the traditional guidance law. In this study, a modified impact point prediction guidance strategy based on an iterative process was developed for a class of dual-spin projectiles with fixed canards, to reduce the impact point dispersion. The guidance strategy is dependent on the modified projectile linear theory to rapidly predict the flight states and the impact point. For projectiles with control applied to the trajectory, the modified projectile linear theory method is known to achieve poor impact point prediction. To improve the prediction accuracy, improvements were made to the modified projectile linear theory by considering the products of the yaw rate and other small quantities. The guidance strategy is based on the iterative process for the continuous adjustment of the expected output of the roll angle of the course correction fuze, to minimize the direction error between the predicted impact point and target location. Studies were conducted on a model dual-spin projectile configuration to demonstrate the guidance details. The numerical simulations indicate that the proposed guidance strategy can effectively reduce the projectile impact point dispersion.

Satellite proximate interception vector guidance based on differential games

This paper studies the proximate satellite interception guidance strategies where both the interceptor and target can perform orbital maneuvers with magnitude limited thrusts. This problem is regarded as a pursuit-evasion game since satellites in both sides will try their best to capture or escape. In this game, the distance of these two players is small enough so that the highly nonlinear earth-centered gravitational dynamics can be reduced to the linear Clohessy-Wiltshire (CW) equations. The system is then simplified by introducing the zero effort miss variables. Saddle solution is formulated for the pursuit-evasion game and time-to-go is estimated similarly as that for the exo-atmospheric interception. Then a vector guidance is derived to ensure that the interception can be achieved in the optimal time. The proposed guidance law is validated by numerical simulations.
