Guidance Equations. Simple Pitch (Yaw) Control Considering Radar Delay, Error Signal and Servo Response

摘要

The equations which describe with a fair degree of accuracy the performance of a missile being guided along a beam are written. No attempt is made to solve the equations; it is suggested that they be solved by a differential analyzer, should one become available, in order (1) to determine whether or not the system represented by the equations is stable and (2), if the system is stable, to obtain as nearly as possible optimum values of the parameters involved.
