Design and Parameter Optimization of Trajectory Correction Control Strategy for Air Duct Structure Projectile

Abstract

In order to make the new air duct structure trajectory correction projectile have good dynamic correction control effect, the control strategy of the projectile’s correction mechanism is studied in this paper. A design method of trajectory correction control strategy based on particle swarm optimization-cuckoo search (PSO-CS) hybrid algorithm is proposed to obtain the optimal control parameters that can make the projectile flight stable and correct accurately. Firstly, the mathematical model of the air duct structure projectile is established. Secondly, the multiobjective optimization problem is analyzed. The projectile’s correction control strategy optimization model is established by taking the start control time, the number of corrections, the correction working time, and the interval time as the control variables. The optimization model innovatively considers the influence of the correction action on the flight stability of the projectile and the influence of the start control time on the correction range. Finally, the PSO-CS hybrid algorithm is used to design the calculation method of the optimization model and solve the optimal correction working parameters. The simulation results indicate that the control strategy optimization model can be solved by the proposed calculation method. Moreover, optimal correction working parameters of the correction mechanism in the current state can be obtained. Compared with the results of using single PSO algorithm and CS algorithm, the correction scheme calculated by PSO-CS hybrid optimization algorithm is better. This correction control scheme can effectively reduce the impact point deviation and make the projectile flight stable. At the same time, the circular error probable (CEP) of the projectile after correction is reduced from 42.3 m to 4.6 m while the impact point dispersion is lowered. The research results show that the design method of correction control strategy proposed in this paper is effective for trajectory correction of the new air duct structure projectile.
