Tracking a target is an essential function of seeker for missiles. The tracking mechanism consists gimbals, mounted with gyroscopes, and antenna or some other energy receiving devices such as radar, infrared (IR), laser. Stabilization gimbal necessary any guided missile to maintain the device always pointing towards target. For stabilization system, several control methods have been employed ma...
