Abstract:

Guidance law estimation and trajectory prediction of interceptor missile are discussed. The engagement model is established in three dimensions, whose state variables are ranges, range rates, interceptor accelerations and guidance coefficients. The observability condition of the system is deduced by using the nonlinear local weak observability theory. Then, an extended Kalman filter is designed based on the condition. Using the filter results as initial values, the interceptor future position is predicted by fourth-order Runge-Kutta method with a model of proportional navigation. Simulation results show that when the line-of-sight rate is large enough, the filter can estimate well and the prediction can meet the requirement of convergence and accuracy.
