ABSTRACTIn this paper, a robust three-dimensional guidance law against manoeuvering targets is designed using the approach of discrete-time partial stabilisation. In the proposed method, the equations of the guidance problem are divided into two subsystems where the asymptotic stability is desired only for the first one. The control input of the second subsystem is designed such that the collision to be ensured in a short time. Despite recent advances in technology and implementation of digital controllers, the design of guidance laws with the approach of discrete-time partial stabilisation has not been done, till now. One of the advantages of this paper is to design a discrete-time guidance law even with the difficulties of the discrete-time Lyapunov theorem. Moreover, the Lyapunov function is chosen based on the physics of the guidance problem (making the rate of line of sight (LOS) rotation close to zero), and it is shown that it is not possible to asymptotically stabilise the system in the case of manoeuvering targets. Nevertheless, to guarantee the collision with the target, it is enough to limit the rotation rate of LOS to a small value. Finally, simulation results are given to show the appropriate performance of the proposed guidance law.

A new three-dimensional (3D) nonlinear guidance law is proposed and developed for bank-to-turn (BTT) with motion coupling. First of all, the 3D guidance model is established. In detail, the line-of-sight (LOS) rate model is established with the vector description method, and the kinematics model is divided into three terms of pitching, swerving and coupling, then by using the twist-based method, the LOS direction changing model is built for designing the guidance law with terminal angular constraints. Secondly, the 3D guidance laws are designed with Lyapunov theory, corresponding to no terminal constraints and terminal constraints, respectively. And finally, the simulation results show that the proposed guidance law can effectively satisfy the guidance precision requirements of BTT missile.

The true proportional navigation guidance law, the augmented proportional navigation guidance law, or the adaptive sliding-mode guidance law, is designed based on the planar target-to-missile relative motion dynamics. By a proper construction of a nonlinear Lyapunov function for the line-of-sight angular rates in the three-dimensional guidance dynamics, it is shown that the three guidance laws mentioned above are able to ensure the asymptotic convergence of the angular rates as they are directly applied to the three-dimensional guidance environment. Furthermore, considering the missile autopilot dynamics as a first-order lag, we design three-dimensional nonlinear guidance laws by using the backstepping technique for three cases: (1) the target does not maneuver; (2) the information of target acceleration can be acquired; and (3) the target acceleration is not available but its bound is known a priori. In the first step of the backstepping design of the control law, there is no need to cancel the nonlinear coupling terms in the three-dimensional guidance dynamics in such way that the final expressions of the proposed guidance laws are significantly simplified. Thus, the proposed nonlinear Lyapunov function for the line-of-sight angular rates is a generalized function for designing three-dimensional guidance laws. Simulation results of a missile interception mission show that the proposed guidance laws are highly effective.

In this article, a new approach to design discrete-time sliding-mode guidance laws is presented based on the target-missile relative motion equation in three-dimensional space. This method significantly reduced system chattering and could be easily achieved on engineering. Furthermore, effectiveness of the proposed guidance laws is demonstrated through simulation by comparing with the traditional proportional guidance laws.

In order to improve the guiding accuracy in intercepting the hypersonic vehicle, this article presents a finite-time guidance law based on the observer and head-pursuit theory. First, based on a two-dimensional model between the interceptor and target, this study applies the fast power reaching law to head-pursuit guidance law so that it can alleviate the chattering phenomenon and ensure the convergence speed. Second, target maneuvers are considered as system disturbances, and the head-pursuit guidance law based on an observer is proposed. Furthermore, this method is extended to a three-dimensional case. Finally, comparative simulation results further verify the superiority of the guidance laws designed in this article.

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.

The actions of a person holding a mobile device are not a static state but can be considered as a stochastic process since users can change the way they hold the device very frequently in a short time. The change in antenna inclination angles with the random actions will result in varied received signal intensity. However, very few studies and conventional channel models have been performed to capture the features. In this paper, the relationships between the statistical characteristics of the electric field and the antenna inclination angles are investigated and modeled based on a three-dimensional (3D) fast ray-tracing method considering both the diffraction and reflections, and the radiation patterns of an antenna with arbitrary inclination angles are deducted and included in the method. Two different conditions of the line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) in the indoor environment are discussed. Furthermore, based on the statistical analysis, a semiempirical probability density function of antenna inclination angles is presented. Finally, a novel statistical channel model for stochastic antenna inclination angles is proposed, and the ergodic channel capacity is analyzed.

A composite three-dimensional (3D) missile guidance law is proposed for manoeuvering targets with the consideration of the first-order autopilot dynamics without any linearization. This guidance law consists of a backstepping controller and a feedforward compensation based on disturbance observers. In this control scheme, the unknown target acceleration is regarded as part of the lumped disturbance, estimated by a disturbance observer, and then feedforward compensated. The backstepping controller is introduced to deal with unmatched disturbances. Moreover, both the nonlinear disturbance observer (NDOB) and the generalized proportional integral observer (GPIO) are employed in the derivation. Simulation studies demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed guidance law, and compare the guidance performance of the two composite guidance laws with different disturbance observers.

This paper derives a new non-linear guidance law aimed at interception of highly manoeuvring targets. The guidance law is developed based on the theory of control Lyapunov functions (CLFs), a methodology for universal stabilization of non-linear systems which is also inverse optimal with respect to some performance measure. The three-dimensional guidance dynamics are formulated in a fixed-line-of-sight coordinate system, yielding matching between the target and missile accelerations. Closed-form expressions for the CLF guidance commands are given. Simulation shows that the new guidance scheme significantly outperforms augmented proportional navigation in short-range engagements.

An integrated guidance integrated estimation/guidance law is designed for exoatmospheric interceptors equipped with divert thrusters and optical seekers to intercept maneuvering targets. This paper considers an angles-only guidance problem for exoatmospheric maneuvering targets. A bounded differential game-based guidance law is derived against maneuvering targets using zero-effort-miss (ZEM). Estimators based the extended Kalman filter (EKF) and the unscented Kalman filter (UKF) are designed to estimate LOS rates that are contaminated by noise and target maneuver. Furthermore, to improve the observability of the range, an observability enhancement differential game guidance law is derived. The guidance law and the estimator are integrated together in the guidance loop. The proposed integrated estimation/guidance law has been tested in several three-dimensional nonlinear interception scenarios. Numerical simulations on a set of Monte-Carlo simulations prove the validity and superiority of the proposed guidance law in hit-to-kill interception.

Several conditions affect the performance of guidance law like target parameters or delayed line of sight rate. A variable navigation ratio is used to enhance the performance of guidance law. In this paper a Genetic Algorithm is used to formulate different forms of variable gains and measure the miss distance. An optimization process is running to find the minimum miss distance. The average values and standard deviation of miss distance for all genetic algorithm individuals are calculated to measure the performance and robustness of guidance law. Two guidance laws are considered proportional navigation (PN) and differential geometry (DG). The simulation results show that the proportional navigation is superior to differential geometry performance in the presence of delayed line of sight rate.
