METHOD FOR GUIDANCE OF FLIGHT VEHICLE ON INTENSIVELY MANEUVERING TARGET Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: homing systems of flight vehicles.

SUBSTANCE: the method consists in the fact that the distance from the flight vehicle to the target by the moment of beginning of homing, the current rate of closure with it, angular velocities of the sight line and the lateral accelerations of the target and guided flight vehicle in the horizontal and vertical planes are measured. After measurements the signals of flight vehicle control in the horizontal and vertical planes are formed according to the relations using the mentioned coordinates of the target and flight vehicle. The high sensitivity of the flight vehicle to the target maneuver is based on the estimation of its lateral accelerations, and the adaptation to the range of the beginning of homing is based on estimation in the procedure of suspension of its navigation parameter.

EFFECT: provided reaction to the maneuver of far located targets and adaptation to the range of the beginning of homing predetermining a more active maneuver of the guided object on a near located target.
