Distributed cooperative guidance law for multiple missiles attacking maneuver target

On the basis of distributed communication and augmented proportional guidance, a kind of distributed collaborative guidance law was designed for maneuver target intercepting based on the network synchronization principle. This guidance law was based on double layer hierarchical cooperative structure, which was composed of local guidance law and distributed coordination strategy. The local guidance law was derived from augmented proportional navigation. Based on the network synchronization principle, distributed coordination strategy which realizes coordinated attack of maneuvering targets at the same time was synthesized. Only the states of missiles were required to be communicated between the nearest-neighbor missiles within-visual-range for the distributed multiple missiles cooperative guidance law, which resulted in the characteristics of scalability and communications. The simulation results demonstrate that this distributed cooperative guidance used by multi-missiles network system can realize coordinated attack of maneuvering target effectively.
