Three-Dimensional Cooperative Guidance Law Design for Simultaneous Attack with Multiple Missiles Against a Maneuvering Target

This paper investigates the problem of designing cooperative guidance laws for simultaneous attack against a maneuvering target in three-dimensional space. A novel cooperative guidance law is designed to synchronize the impact times of all the missiles by coordinating the relative distances of the missiles to the target, where adaptive control method is used to deal with the uncertainties introduced by unknown target acceleration.
