Trajectory Modulation Guidance Law for Anti-ship Missiles

TL;DR: A new optimal homing guidance law with terminal angle constraints is developed to improve the survivability of anti-ship missiles and a new virtual state variable is introduced to provide one more degree of freedom resulting in weave manoeuvres on the missile trajectory.

Seeker Based Optimal Guidance Law, A Few Issues

TL;DR: Zarchan’s formula of just stable IGL is modified for minimum control margin of IGL, and if time constants for OGL is selected with stability margin formula based on higher navigation gain, somewhat longer seeker range will assure guidance performance without making radome slope specification too stringent to be peacticable.

Adaptive Backstepping Impact Angle Guidance Law Accounting for Autopilot Lag

TL;DR: In this paper, a robust impact angle guidance law for maneuvering target interception with autopilot dynamics compensation based on a systematic backstepping control technique is presented, which is based on the systematic back stepping control technique.

Impact-time-control guidance laws for cooperative attack of multiple missiles

TL;DR: A new closed-form ITCG guidance solution is presented, based on the linear formulation, employ- ing base trajectories driven by PNG with various navigation constants that demonstrates the performance and feasibility of the proposed ITCGs law.
