Impact angle constrained guidance for all-aspect interception with function-based finite-time sliding mode control

TL;DR: In this paper, a function-based finite-time sliding mode control methodology is introduced to design the guidance law, which achieves the desired impact angle exactly at the time of interception, and it is capable of ensuring a continuous and smooth control action.

Guidance Law Design for Missiles with Reduced Seeker Field-Of-View

TL;DR: In this paper, a closed-form guidance law is obtained by employing the D θ − nonlinear control technique, which is designed to address the reduced seeker field-of-view constraint that is required in the low cost weapon system.

Closed-form optimal cooperative guidance law against random step maneuver

TL;DR: The analytical and numerical results show that OCGL is superior to the noncooperative guidance laws such as proportional navigation (PN) and optimal guidance law (OGL), even if the real model differs from the model used in the derivation of the guidance law.

Evaluation of Two Guidance Laws for Controlling the Impact Flight Path Angle of a Naval Gun Launched Spinning Projectile

TL;DR: In this paper, two guidance laws, the Generalized Explicit (GENEX) and the Forward Integration of Terminal States (FITS), are evaluated for controlling the impact flight path angle (IFPA) of a naval five-inch gun launched GPS guided rocket assisted spinning projectile.

Command-Shaping Guidance Law Based on a Gaussian Weighting Function

TL;DR: A new homing guidance law is introduced based on the energy cost weighted by a Gaussian function in order to shape the missile's trajectory and distribute the acceleration command during the engagement.
