Missile Formation Guidance Algorithm Independent of Data Communication

Abstract

Abstract: To solve the control problem of missile formation without support of weapon data-link, a new guidance algorithm for systems grouped by the leader-follower structure based on multi-agent consensus theory is proposed, which only requires the motion parameters, such as relative distance and relative speed among missiles, which can be measured by the followers’ active radar seeker. The proposed algorithm needs no data communication among missiles and absolute positions of formation members, but can make all members approach to ideal positions and consistent velocity simultaneously. Algebraic graph theory is employed to prove the asymptotic stability of closed loop control system, and a model of required force for missile formation control is built based on coordinate conversion and missile motion equation. Simulated results are used to verify the validity of the proposed algorithm and its application prospect for general design of missile formation system. Key
