Two-channel pitch/yaw missile autopilot design using arbitrary order sliding modes based pole placement

摘要

The paper presents a new missile autopilot system design. The design is achieved through the pole-placement in quasi-continuous high-order sliding mode gains adjustment. Enhanced performance, strong robustness and smooth control are obtained through arbitrary increase of the number of non-oscillatory stable poles. The target application of this technique the two-channel pitch/yaw missile autopilot system is considered. Numerical simulations indicate that the arbitrary-order sliding modes based pole placement's performance compares favourably against recently proposed high-order pole placement schemes.
