Linear Quadratic Guidance Laws for Imposing a Terminal Intercept Angle

TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived linear quadratic guidance laws that explicitly enable imposing a predetermined intercept angle for arbitrary-order linear missile dynamics, which are dependent on the well-known zero-effort miss distance and on a new variable denoted zeroeffort angle.

Design of Missile Guidance Law via Variable Structure Control

TL;DR: In this article, a variable structure control (VSC) based guidance law was proposed, where the acceleration command input is determined considering the target acceleration as an uncertainty, and the proposed guidance law uses only the information for the estimated target acceleration bound.

Optimal Cooperative Pursuit and Evasion Strategies Against a Homing Missile

TL;DR: It is shown how the target can lure in the attacker, allowing its defender to intercept the attacking missile even in scenarios in which the defender's maneuverability is at a disadvantage compared with the attacking ballistic missile.

Nonsingular Sliding Mode Guidance for Impact Time Control

TL;DR: In this paper, a guidance problem for impact time control applicable to salvo attacks is considered based on the sliding mode control, and a positive continuous nonlinear function of the lead angle is introduced to the guidance command, which makes the Lyapunov stability negative semidefinite.
