Maneuver library and integrated control system for autonomous close-in air combat

A maneuver library including describing parameters for autonomous close-in air combat is designed. The tactical maneuvers are described in both qualitative manner and quantitative manner for reflecting their geometric forms and tactical meanings. For the control of maneuvers, a multi-hierarchical structure for integrated control system is proposed, which includes assignment management, kinematics control, dynamics control and plant respectively. Maneuvering command generator for each type of tactical maneuvers is designed for generating airstream angle command and velocity command. The control law of airstream angles is designed by backstepping method with command filter. The simulation results of vertical break and high Yo-Yo indicate that, the describing parameters of maneuvers can show the geometric form and tactical meaning exactly, and the integrated control system can achieve the autonomous control of maneuvers.
