Bank-To-Turn Cruise Missile Terminal Guidance and Control Law Comparison

摘要

This work consists of the development of the six degree of freedom] non-linear model of a sea launched generic bank-to-turn cruise missile attacking a medium sized combatant ship. Two guidance and control schemes are compared in the terminal phase. The first, or baseline guidance scheme (pop out maneuver), uses a 50-foot altitude hold for an ingress phase, followed by a pop out maneuver, and then an attack phase which uses proportional navigation in elevation and azimuth planes along with bank-to-turn maneuvering. The second scheme (sea skimmer) uses identical ingress and attack phases but eliminates the pop out maneuver. Miss distances for both schemes are compared while varying missile roll rate limit, ECM blinking frequency, and burn through range.
