Aimed at the poor performance of guidance algorithms designed based on a linearized model in active defense under large leading angle deviation, both-way and one-way cooperative sliding mode smooth nonsingular terminal for missile are proposed. The relative kinematics models target, missile, attacking established. In design process, two surfaces constructed zero-effort miss distance velocity, a...

VOLUME 10, NUMBER 2, 1997 THE LINCOLN LABORATORY JOURNAL 203 L    played a major role in developing wideband radar systems. This development was motivated by the successful application of high-power instrumentation radars to research in ballistic missile defense and satellite surveillance. Today’s wideband imaging radars perform real-time discrimination and target identificat...

The application of fuzzy logic for the development of guidance laws for homing missiles is presented. Fuzzy logic approximation of the well known proportional navigation guidance law is discussed, followed by the development of a blended guidance law using fuzzy logic. The objective of the latter guidance law is to combine desirable features of three homing guidance laws to enhance the intercep...

During the Cuban missile crisis, U.S. Marine Corps deployed a Hawk air defense battery from 3d Light Antiaircraft Missile (LAAM) Battalion to Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, protect naval base surprise low-level attack by Soviet and aircraft. The battalion was alerted airlifted Twentynine Palms, California, Cherry Point, North Carolina, with its Battery C forward into Cuba. deployment validated readiness...

This paper will demonstrate that by leveraging advanced photometric processing algorithms developed for the Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) mission, ExoAnalytic and AGI have proven the capability to provide actionable SSA intelligence for satellite operators from small telescopes in less than optimal viewing conditions. Space has become an increasingly cluttered environment requiring satellite ...

2 INTRODUCTION The guided missile provides military forces with the capability to deliver munitions rapidly and precisely to selected targets at a distance. This capability establishes an effective means to conduct a wide variety of military missions that range from denying the enemy communications or supply routes, to establishing air superiority, to performing anti-ship cruise missile or ball...
