A performance anaylsis technique for guided weapons

유도무기체계의 성능분석기법

The development of a guided weapon system, such as a tactical missile, requires a performance analysis of a nonlinear system. Generally, the Monte Carlo analysis method is used for this purpose. The limitation of this method, a large number of simulations, for a nonlinear system performance analysis strongly motivated the development of a more efficient analytic technique. In this paper, the statisfical linearization methods is used for the performance analysis to the guided weapon system with the help of covariance analysis technique. Because the statistical linearization methods cannot be used to the look-up table nonlinear form such as aerodynamic coefficients, the second order polynomial representations is obtained from the table using the Lagrange interpolating polynomial and linearized statistically. Simple simulations about initial state conditions and random component in guidance command shows the results of this technique.
