Most publications discussing missile interception systems assume a zero computer response time. This paper studies the impact of computer response time on single-missile single-target and multiple-missile multiple-target systems. Simulation results for the final miss distance as the computer response time increases are presented. A simple online co...

... section briefly summarizes the principles of some classic guidance laws, and presents simulation results for a single-missile single-target system. The typical guidance laws that are implemented in missile guidance systems are the Proportional Navigation Guidance (PNG), and its more advanced counterpart, the Augmented Proportional Navigation Guidance (APNG). PNG is one of the most widely used guidance laws in homing air target missile systems. The main underlying assumption is that if two vehicles are on a collision course, their direct Line-of-Sight (LOS) does not change direction or value. Generally speaking, PNG indicates that the missile velocity direction should rotate at a rate proportional to the turn rate of the LOS, and should be in the same direction. Typical parameters in this geometry (see Figure 1) can be found in (P. Zarchan, 2007): L+HE: where L is the Missile Lead Angle and HE is the Heading ...

Abstract In this article, a new synthesis method for generalized multi‐band filters has been proposed. Different from the traditional frequency transformation method, which transforms a low‐pass prototype into a multi‐band filter, multiple low‐pass prototypes have been transformed into a multi‐band filter. This study introduces the idea of transfor...
