National Technical Reports Library

The National Technical Information Service acquires, indexes, abstracts, and archives the largest collection of U.S. government-sponsored technical reports in existence. The NTRL offers online, free and open access to these authenticated government technical reports. Technical reports and documents in its repository may be available online for free either from the issuing federal agency, the U.S. Government Publishing Office’s Federal Digital System website, or through search engines.

Missile Terminal Guidance and Control Against Evasive Targets.

ADA378653

Publication Date	2000
Personal Author	Swee, J. C.
Page Count	94
Abstract	Terminal guidance of the missile against an evasive target is explored. The two main types of guidance laws employed in the majority of missiles, namely proportional navigation and command to line-of-sight are modeled using Matlab(registered) Simulink(Trademark). The two-dimensioned missile-target intercept geometry is simulated for a point mass missile and target. Missile velocity due to its drag also factored. The engagement results for different scenarios with target doing a 9-g evasive maneuver are then compared to analyze the performance of hybrid proportional navigation guidance with bang-bang control.
