Simulation-based comprehensive performance assessment of precision guided system

This paper presents a methodology of performance assessment for precision guided system. Hierarchical performance index system is established with a tree-like structure. Scheme of performance evaluation platform design is presented with four main parts, such as process management system, vehicle guidance simulation system, data processing system, and evaluation system. Based on the scheme, performance assessment platform is developed via Visual C++ codes. Numerical simulation method based on Monte Carlo simulation is used to get the values of the lowest level indexes. AHP method is used to compute the values of upper level indexes. An example of precision guided system performance assessment is given. And Simulation results suggest that the methodology presented in this paper is effective.
