Abstract

Abstract : This paper proposed an optimal time-varying proportional navigation guidance law based on sequential convex programming. The guidance law can achieve the desired impact angle and impact time with look angle and lateral acceleration constraints. By treating the multiconstraints' guidance problem as an optimization problem and changing the independent variable to linearize the problem and constraints, the original nonlinear and nonconvex problem is transformed into a series of convex optimization problem so that it can be quickly solved by sequential convex programming. Numerical simulations compared to nonlinear programming and traditional analytical guidance law demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed algorithm. Finally, the proposed guidance law is verified to satisfy different impact time periods and impact angle constraints.
