Nonsingular impact time guidance and control using deviated pursuit
2021
Abstract This paper deals with nonsingular guidance and control design for an interceptor, using a decoupled approach, steered by the combined effects of both canard and tail, to intercept a moving but non-maneuvering target at a time specified a priori. First, interceptor's desired lateral acceleration, consisting of nominal and corrective components, is derived using deviated pursuit guidance. While the nominal component is the pursuit guidance law, the corrective component drives the time-to-go error to zero within a finite-time in an optimal manner. Using a desired error dynamics and a meaningful performance index, the lateral acceleration demand is minimized during the transient phase. With exact knowledge of time-to-go and the consideration of nonlinear kinematic model, the proposed design circumvents the errors arising out of any approximations. Interceptor's canard and tail deflection commands are derived using predefined-time convergent sliding mode control, which allows the autopilot to precisely track the commanded lateral acceleration within a time specified during design. Finally, simulations are presented for various cases to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed design.
