Fuzzy side force control for missile against hypersonic target

TL;DR: In this paper, an integrated fuzzy-logic-based side force control mechanism is proposed for the interception of ballistic targets in three-dimensional space, where two additional auxiliary thrusters are configured to generate extra transverse acceleration and thereby reinforce the engagement performance.

Analytical Model and Control Solutions for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Maneuvers in a Vertical Plane

TL;DR: It is shown that the first integrals which have been shown valid for a variety of aircraft platforms, re-entry vehicles and missiles, can be applied to UAVs in which such control solutions are needed for sense and avoid situations.

Enhanced extended state observer based control for missile acceleration autopilot.

TL;DR: For the first time, this paper gives a rigorous proof of equivalent input disturbance (EID) for single-input-single-output systems and introduces the concept of EID, which enables the proposed method to handle multiple disturbances.

A passivity perspective for the synthesis of robust terminal guidance

TL;DR: A robust guidance synthesis based on the passivity approach is applied to missiles whose flight control dynamics are modeled as linear uncertain systems with bounded uncertainties, providing passivation by feedback and feedforward control.

Geometrical guidance algorithm for soft landing on lunar surface

TL;DR: In this paper, an existing circular guidance law developed for missile guidance is modified to be applied for the fine braking phase of lunar powered descent, and a simple compensation scheme based on comparison of actual velocity from sensors and expected velocity from the algorithm is also proposed to take care of the variation in gravity and initial mass estimate.
