State estimation of spiral maneuvering target and simulation of three-dimensional intercept

TL;DR: In this article, a kalman filter is developed to estimate and extract kinetic information including the relative target-to-interceptor position, velocity and target acceleration, and the associated guidance law is used to generate the command accelerations of the interceptor using the state estimate to finish the simulation of intercept, a comparison is also made between the traditional guidance and the new one to determine the best algorithm, and my aim is to minimize the miss distance.

NDOB-based three-dimensional guidance law with fast and finite-time convergence

TL;DR: In this paper, a three-dimensional finite-time guidance law for both nonmaneuvering and maneuvering targets is proposed for both trajectories and trajectories, where augmented functions are involved to improve the convergence of the guidance system, while the NDOBs are used to compensate the unknown target accelerations and handle the chattering problem.

Observability-Enhancement Optimal Guidance Law

TL;DR: Under certain conditions, it is proved that the guidance law developed gradually switches from retro proportional navigation guidance to classical proportional Navigation guidance as time goes.
