Adaptive control law based integrated guidance and control design for missile with the radome error compensation

This paper presents an integrated guidance and control design for the homing missiles with the radome error compensation to address the guidance problems caused by radome. Firstly, a mathematics model of the integrated guidance and control system with the compensation for the radome error is built by integrating the missile dynamics and the engagement kinematics between the missile and ground target on the longitudinal motion. Secondly, the model is transformed into a normal form by nonlinear coordinate transformation because the system is a time-varying system with mismatched uncertainties. Thirdly, an adaptive control law of the system is designed by adopting the sliding mode control theory, and the stability of the closed-loop system is also conducted. Finally, the simulation proves that the proposed integrated guidance and control scheme can effectively compensate for the radome error and ensure the hit-to-kill attack to the target.
