in this paper, the problem of finite time stabilization for guidance system is investigated and a novel nonlinear guidance law against maneuvering targets is proposed based on the principles of parallel navigation. the proposed law is developed using two variable structure control techniques. by applying finite time integral sliding mode and combining it with terminal sliding mode, a new guidan...

This article proposes an improved version of 3-D pure proportional navigation (PPN) against a manoeuvring target. The main research hypothesis is that the performance PPN can be by properly selecting direction guidance command as there exists infinite number potential directions complying with concept in space. Analysis on relative motion confirms validity and leads to development new algorithm...

This paper describes a new approach for autonomous guidance along a road for an unmanned air vehicle (UAV) using a visual sensor. A road is defined as any continuous, extended, curvilinear feature, which can include city streets, highways, and dirt roads, as well as forest-fire perimeters, shorelines, and fenced borders. To achieve autonomous road-following, this paper utilizes Proportional Nav...
