Abstract
This paper presents a suboptimal three-dimensional guidance law to intercept unknown maneuvering targets with terminal angle constraint using multivariable control design. The presented guidance law is essentially a composite control method, which is constructed through a combination of standard continuous model predictive control (MPC) and adaptive multivariable sliding mode disturbance observer (SMDO). More specifically, the MPC method is utilized to obtain optimal line-of-sight (LOS) angle tracking performance for nonmaneuvering targets, while the SMDO technique is used to estimate and compensate for the unknown target maneuver online. By virtue of the adaptive nature, the proposed guidance law does not require any information on the bounds of target maneuver and its gradient except for their existence. The stability of the closed-loop guidance system is also analyzed by using Lyapunov function method. Simulation results clearly confirm the effectiveness of the proposed formulation against a maneuvering target.
