Firstly, the difficulties in the hypersonic trajectory prediction are introduced which invalidate the conventionally used predicted impact point based mid-course guidance and seeker acquisition. Secondly, in order to optimally estimate and predict the target trajectory information, the interacting multiple model(IMM) algorithm is used with the constant velocity(CV) model, the constant acceleration(CA) model and the Singer model serving as the model set. The target states are described with the probability density function(PDF) based on the IMM prediction. Thirdly, the interceptor seeker target acquisition model is established which considers the blur edge region of the field of view. The cooperative target acquisition algorithm is designed by maximizing the interceptor seekers cooperative coverage of the target high probability region(HPR). Finally, digital simulations prove the effectiveness of the proposed method and reveal that the real challenge in the hypersonic target acquisition is the poor trajectory prediction accuracy which may further result to the unsteadiness of the interceptor trajectories.展开更多

Firstly, the planar CR of the proportional navigation in terminal guidance is analyzed and innovatively introduced in the midcourse trajectory planning problems, with the collision triangle（CT） serving as the ideal terminal states parameters of the midcourse phase, and the CR area serving as the robustness against target maneuvers. Secondly, the midcourse trajectory planning problem that considers the path, terminal and control constraints is formulated and the well-developed GPM is used to generate the nominal trajectory that meets the CR demands. The interceptor will reshape the trajectory only when the former CR fails to cover the target, which has loosened the critical demand for frequent trajectory modification. Finally, the simulations of four different scenarios are carried out and the results prove the effectiveness and optimality of the proposed method.展开更多
