Design of Missile Guidance Law via Variable Structure Control

TL;DR: In this paper, a variable structure control (VSC) based guidance law for a single-missile system is proposed, where the acceleration command is determined considering the target acceleration information as uncertainty.

Cooperative Differential Games Strategies for Active Aircraft Protection from a Homing Missile

TL;DR: In this paper, a linear quadratic differential game formulation for arbitrary-order linear players' dynamics in the continuous and discrete domains is derived for a team composed of two agents, where the target aircraft performs evasive maneuvers and launches a defending missile to intercept the homing missile.

Integrated Higher-Order Sliding Mode Guidance and Autopilot for Dual Control Missiles

TL;DR: An integrated autopilot and guidance algorithm, robust to target maneuvers and missile’s model uncertainties, is developed using higher-order sliding mode control for interceptors steered by a combination of aerodynamic lift, sustainer thrust, and center-of-gravity divert thrusters.

Computing With Words for Hierarchical Decision Making Applied to Evaluating a Weapon System

TL;DR: Novel weighted averages are proposed in this paper as a CWW engine in the Per-C to aggregate diverse inputs and uncertainties associated with these inputs can be preserved and are propagated into the final evaluation.

Integrated sliding mode autopilot-guidance for dual-control missiles

TL;DR: In this paper, an integrated autopilot and guidance algorithm is developed, using the sliding mode control approach, for a missile with forward and aft control surfaces, based on guidance considerations, the zero efiort miss (ZEM), encountered in difierential games guidance solutions, is used as one of the sliding variables in the proposed control scheme.
