Abstract: Distributed cooperative guidance is proposed for the missiles with heterogeneous constraints of field-of-view. Communication among missiles is periodic, and only the information of range-to-go is exchanged among the neighboring missiles in the network to generate a consensus error. Based on the missile’s field-of-view and the lead angle, a saturation function is used, and a distributed consensus protocol is developed by the consensus error so that the coordination variables can reach consensus. Multiple missiles are disconnected to the communication network and are guided to a target independently when they approach a target and their coordination variables are consistent. Based on feedback linearization, graph and matrix theories, the sufficient conditions are established to make the multiple missiles realize the cooperative attack under the cooperative guidance law. Compared with the conventional cooperative guidance of multiple missiles, the proposed cooperative guidance law can satisfy each missile’s constraints of heterogeneous field-of-views, and the communication effort is easy. Simulated results show that the salvo attack of multiple missiles is achieved, and the target is locked on during each missile’s flight. Key
