Modeling of Target Tracking System for Homing Missiles and Air Defense Systems
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2018, Vol 10, Issue 2
Abstract
One reason of why the guidance and control systems are imperfect is due to the dynamics of both the tracker and the missile, which appears as an error in the alignment with the LOS and delay in the response of the missile to change its orientation. Other reasons are the bias and disturbances as well as the noise about and within the system such as the thermal noise. This paper deals with the tracking system used in the homing guidance and air defense systems. A realistic model for the tracking system model is developed including the receiver servo dynamics and the possible disturbance and noise that may affect the accuracy of the tracking signals measured by the seeker sensor. Modeling the parameters variability and uncertainty is also examined to determine the robustness margin of the tracking system.

Comparison of critical behaviors of elliptic and hyperbolic quadratic algebraic equations with variable coefficients
A comparison of the behaviours of the elliptic with those of hyperbolic quadratic algebraic equations (QAEs) with free and linear variable coefficients, in vicinity of their critical surfaces is made. The critic values o...
An Extension of Newton Gravity Formula Considering the Universe Expansion Effects
The Universe expansion and gravity are perhaps the main factors that determine the Universe evolution at global scale. The expansion of the Universe seen as a sphere whose frontier is moving at the speed of light in vacu...
