TL;DR: In this article, a nonlinear three-dimensional all-aspect guidance problem of an acceleration-constrained missile is dealt with, and a feedback linearization method is applied to derive a threedimensional guidance law, which enables the missile to intercept a maneuvering target under initial boresight and heading conditions.
Abstract: A nonlinear three-dimensional all-aspect guidance problem of an acceleration-constrained missile is dealt with. The feedback linearization method is applied to derive a three-dimensional guidance law, which enables the missile to intercept a maneuvering target under all-aspect initial boresight and heading conditions. The new guidance law is characterized by convergence to a collision course. It is shown that the proposed guidance law enables interception where the proportional navigation and the augmented proportional navigation guidance laws fail. Simulations demonstrate that the proposed law has the capability to perform several interception trials.

TL;DR: Simulation results show that for three cases with different conditions of velocity, the cooperative simultaneous attack under multiple constraints can be effectively carried out using each of the two proposed cooperative guidance laws, which verify their effectiveness and feasibility.

TL;DR: In this paper, the game theory based guidance law was applied to derive guidance laws for the TMD (Target, the Missile and the Defender) scenario, where the objective of the defender is to minimize its distance to the defender while the defender's objective is to maximize its distance from the defender and not to jeopardize its effort to intercept the target.
Abstract: In defense against missile attack there are three participants. The Target, the Missile, that intercepts the Target, and the Defender, that protects the Target by interception of the missile. This is a three person game, the Target, the Missile and the Defender (TMD) game. The dynamic game theory is applied to derive guidance laws for the TMD scenario. In such scenario the objective of the Defender is minimizing its distance to the Missile while the objective of the Missile is to maximize its distance from the Defender and at the same time not to jeopardize its effort to intercept the Target, i.e. minimizing its miss while the Target performs avoidance maneuvers. The performance of the games theory based guidance law is compared to case when the target performs evasive constant acceleration maneuver, and the missile and defender implement Proportional Navigation. It is shown that the application of the game theory based guidance law reduces significantly the miss of both the target- missile miss and the missile-defender miss as well as the required acceleration levels.
