Integrated Guidance and Control of Moving Mass Actuated Kinetic Warheads
نویسندگان
چکیده
Modeling, simulation, and integrated guidance-control of a kinetic warhead utilizing moving-mass actuators are discussed. Moving masses can be used in any speed range both in the atmosphere as well as outside it, as long as there is a force, either aerodynamic or propulsive, acting on the vehicle. The moving-mass actuation technique offers significant advantages over conventional aerodynamic control surfaces and reaction control systems, since the actuators are contained entirely within the airframe geometric envelope and produce no plumes. The present research develops a nine degreeof-freedom simulation model of a kinetic warhead with three moving-mass actuators. This simulation model is used for actuator sizing and in the development of flight control systems. A software package for performing numerical feedback linearization is employed for the design of nonlinear flight control systems. Interception of nonmaneuvering and weaving targets in both endo-atmospheric and exo-atmospheric conditions is demonstrated.

Finite-Horizon Robust Integrated Guidance-Control of A Moving-Mass Actuated Kinetic Warhead
A game-theoretic approach to the design of robust integrated guidance-control system for a moving-mass actuated kinetic warhead is presented. Feedback linearized form of the kinetic warhead dynamics and a high-order target model are used in the formulation. Nonlinear feedback solution to the robust finite-horizon target interception problem is derived using the recently developed multi-stepping...

In this paper, the continuity of tracking a ground moving target using a Hexarotor is considered in the presence of sudden changes in direction, deceptive movements, temporary departure from the field of view (FOV) and changes in the height of the target. In this regard, a hierarchical guidance and control system for target tracking problem in an unknown environment and disturbances is proposed...
متن کاملIntegrated fuzzy guidance law for high maneuvering targets based on proportional navigation guidance
An integrated fuzzy guidance (IFG) law for a surface to air homing missile is introduced. The introduced approach is a modification of the well-known proportional navigation guidance (PNG) law. The IFG law enables the missile to approach a high maneuvering target while trying to minimize control effort as well as miss-distance in a two-stage flight. In the first stage, while the missile is far ...
