Abstract

The design of guidance law can be considered a kind of finite-time error-tracking problem. A unified free-time convergent guidance law design approach based on the error dynamics and the free-time convergence method is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the desired free-time convergent error dynamics approach is proposed, and its convergent time can be set freely, which is independent of the initial states and the guidance parameters. Then, the illustrative guidance laws considering the leading angle constraint, impact angle constraint, and impact time constraint are derived based on the proposed free-time convergent error dynamics respectively. The connection and distinction between the proposed and the existing guidance laws are analyzed theoretically. Finally, the performance of the proposed guidance laws is verified by simulation comparison.
