Impact Angle Constraint

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.

Guidance Model

ABSTRACTAiming at three-dimensional (3D) terminal guidance problem, a novel guidance model is established in this paper, in which line-of-sight (LOS) range is treated as an independent variable, describing the relative motion between the vehicle and the target. The guidance model includes two differential equations that describe LOS’s pitch and yaw motions in which the pitch motion is separately decoupled. This model avoids the inaccuracy of simplified two-dimensional (2D) guidance model and the complexity of 3D coupled guidance model, which not only maintains the accuracy but also simplifies the guidance law design. The application of this guidance model is studied for optimal re-entry guidance law with impact angle constraint, which is presented in the form of normal overload. Compared with optimal guidance laws based on traditional guidance model, the proposed one based on novel guidance model is implemented with the LOS range instead of time-to-go, which avoids the problem of the time-to-go estimation of traditional optimal guidance laws. Finally, the correctness and validity of the guidance model and guidance law are verified by numerical simulation. The guidance model and guidance law proposed in this paper provide a new way for the design of terminal guidance.

Impact Angle Constraint

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.
