Precision missile guidance for systems intercepting at small attack angles : a H‡ tracking approach

This paper uses the H1 tracking ideas in the missile guidance problem. The controller performs as a Precision guidance controller for small desired attack angles although theoretically the formulas are valid (when intercepting a maneuvering target in a precision guidance point of view) only for the case of head on collision. The controller essentially navigates the missile in a unique relative arc that is de ned by the missile and target location and the desired attack angle.
