This paper proposes a novel three-dimensional guidance method based on clock synchronization algorithms, creatively solving the problems of randomized change, non-connection and even communication outage caused by packet loss and delay in the co-guidance of loitering munitions. The proposed method is characterized by fast convergence of the aspect angle rate in the longitudinal plane, and the attack time constrains in the lateral plane. Normal accelerations on the two sub-planes are thereby calculated, so as to control the munitions' co-attack. Simulation experiments show that the proposed method can ensure reliable and stable asymptotic agreement of attack time expectation for the cooperative multiple munitions under the switching and noisy networks.

“…In summary, equations (13)- (14), (23)- (26), (31), and (32) constitute the complete DTEG law, which can realize multiple missiles' target-encirclement cooperative attack. Specifically, the decentralization protocols of desired LOS angles, namely equations (13) and (14), can coordinate multiple missiles' desired LOS angles; the dynamic virtual targets strategy, namely equations (25) and (26), can generate each missile's virtual target according to its corresponding desired LOS angle; the BPNG law, namely equations (23) and (24), can steer the missiles to attack their virtual targets with desired LOS angles. The consensus protocol of simultaneous attack, namely equations (31) and (32), can ensure that multiple missiles arrive at the target simultaneously.…”

The target-encirclement guidance problem for many-to-one missile-target engagement scenario is studied, where the missiles evenly distribute on a target-centered circle during the homing guidance. The proposed distributed target-encirclement guidance law can achieve simultaneous attack of multiple missiles in different line-of-sight directions. Firstly, the decentralization protocols of desired line-of-sight angles are constructed based on the information of neighboring missiles. Secondly, a biased proportional navigation guidance law that can arbitrarily designate the impact angle is cited. The missiles can achieve all-aspect attack on the target in an encirclement manner by combining the biased proportional navigation guidance law and dynamic virtual targets strategy. Thirdly, the consensus protocol of simultaneous attack is designed, which can guarantee that all missiles’ time-to-go estimates achieve consensus asymptotically, and the convergence of the closed-loop system is proved strictly via the Lyapunov stability theory. Finally, numerical simulation results demonstrate the performance and feasibility of the proposed distributed target-encirclement guidance law in different engagement situations.

This study focuses on the co-operative salvo attack problem of multiple missiles against a stationary target under jointly connected switching topologies subject to time-varying communication delays. By carefully exploring certain features of the typical pure proportional navigation guidance law, a two-stage distributed guidance scheme is proposed without any information on time-to-go in this study to realise the simultaneous attack of multiple missiles. In the first guidance stage, a co-operative guidance law is proposed using local neighbouring communications only to achieve consensus on range-to-go and heading error to provide favourable initial conditions for the latter phase, in which switching topologies and time-varying communication delays are taken into account when obtaining sufficient conditions of consensus in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Then, missiles disconnect from each other and are guided individually by the typical pure proportional navigation guidance law with the same navigation gain to realise salvo attack in the second guidance phase. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out to clearly validate the theoretical results.
