한국의 해군력 건설 방향은 미래 해양 안보환경과 국가경제력에 상응함은 물론 주변국 해군에 대해 균형자적 역할을 담당할 수 있는 정예 해군력으로 건설해야 할 것이다. 이런 의미에서 수상 전투함은 높은 안정성, 고감도 탐지 장비와 함정 전투체계에 의한 성분작전 수행 능력 및 전역 탄도미사일 방어를 위한 탐지, 추적, 요격 및 실시간 지휘통제를 위한 함정 전투체계의 능력완비 등을 목표로 개발해 나가야 할 것이다.

The ballistic missile is very threatening weapon system because it is difficult to detect and intercept due to fast speed. Recently, many countries worry about North Korea's ballistic missile launching tests especially the success of launching Kwangmyongsong-3 satellite by Eunha-3 long range rocket at 2012. This event means announcement of North Korea have capability to develop ICBM(Intercontinental Ballistic Missile) to all over the world. In this paper, it is surveyed and described that history, types and threat of ballistic missiles.

최근 개발된 비선형 자동조종 제어기를 사용하면 비행 환경에 무관하게 BTT 미사일의 입출력 동특성이 일정한 선형 시스템의 형대로 표현될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 특성을 바탕으로 BTT 미사일이 목표물의 취약 지점을 정밀하게 요격할 수 있도록 자동조종장치 동역학의 시간 지연 효과를 고려하여 표적 충돌각을 최소화하는 최적 종말 유도 법칙을 설계하였다. 제안된 최적 종말 유도 법칙은 극좌표 변환을 사용하지 않기 때문에 가제어성을 보장하며, 가속도 편향값을 사용하지 않기 때문에 기존의 유도 법칙에 비하여 미사일의 기동성을 향상시킬 수 있는 장점을 갖는다.

In the study, to minimize the error on guided control of the KV (Kill Vehicle) and to secure the hit-to-kill performance, a position accuracy inspection for the DACS (Divert and Attitude Control System) actuation system was proposed. The accuracy performance of the DACS actuation system is one of the most important factors in the interception of ballistic missiles. In order to validate actuation control accuracy of DACS system, an inspection item was set for position accuracy, and the inspection system was designed for DACS pintle. To measure the absolute position value of the DACS pintle, an external measurement system was developed using laser displacement sensors. The inspection system was designed so that it can be compared with the actuation command in real time. The proposed position accuracy inspection system can be inspected not only in a DACS system but also in missile system level. The position accuracy inspection was performed using the designed inspection system, and analysis of the inspection result.

This paper analyzed flight trajectory characteristics of ballistic missiles considering effects of drag forces. It is difficult to intercept ballistic missiles which fly over atmosphere with supersonic speeds and small radar cross section (RCS). In particular, the velocities in the phases of boost and terminal are changed significantly due to the steep variation of the drag force. Therefore, in order to build up a successful ballistic missile defense systems, the effects of the drag forces should be considered in the analysis of ballistic missile trajectory characteristics. In this point of view, this work analyzed the effects of drag forces and derived the flight trajectory characteristics of Scud B, C and Nodong missiles. Model of the ballistic missile flight trajectory is considered the effects of Coriolis and centrifugal forces, and specifications of the missiles are open sources.

A recent air defense missile system(ADMS) is required to have a capability to intercept super-high speed targets such as tactical ballistic missiles(TBMs) by performing engagement control efficiently. The air defense missile system should be ready to engage the TBMs as soon as the ADMS detects TBMs because falling velocity of TBM is very high and remaining time interval to engage TBM is very short. As a result, the ADMS has to predict the trajectories of TBMs accurately with estimated states of dynamics to generate predicted intercept point(PIP). In addition, it is needed to engage TBMs accurately via transmitting the obtained PIP data to the corresponding intercept missiles. In this paper, an analysis about the relationship between ballistic coefficient and PIP accuracy which is depending on geodetic height of the first detection of TBM is included and an issue about effective engagement control for the TBM is considered.

In order to establish an effective engagement plan of the missile defense system, both spatial and temporal performance analysis of the intercept system should be performed. However, research on existing missile defense systems has been mainly focused on spatial performance. In this study, time performance factors are defined through the composition and operational concept of missile defense system, and the target ballistic missile interception process is presented as integrated timeline through ballistic missile model and radar model. We also proposed an algorithm for deriving time performance. Simulation results confirm that the time performance factors can be used in the engagement planning for multi-engagement through the example of engagement planning.

This paper considers the allocation and engagement scheduling problem of interceptor missiles, and the problem was formulated by using MIP (mixed integer programming) in the previous research. The objective of the model is the maximization of total intercept altitude instead of the more conventional objective such as the minimization of surviving target value. The concept of the time window was used to model the engagement situation and a continuous time is assumed for flying times of the both missiles. The MIP formulation of the problem is very complex due to the complexity of the real problem itself. Hence, the finding of an efficient optimal solution procedure seems to be difficult. In this paper, an efficient genetic algorithm is developed by improving a general genetic algorithm. The improvement is achieved by carefully analyzing the structure of the formulation. Specifically, the new algorithm includes an enhanced repair process and a crossover operation which utilizes the idea of the PSO (particle swarm optimization). Then, the algorithm is throughly tested on 50 randomly generated engagement scenarios, and its performance is compared with that of a commercial package and a more general genetic algorithm, respectively. The results indicate that the new algorithm consistently performs better than a general genetic algorithm. Also, the new algorithm generates much better results than those by the commercial package on several test cases when the execution time of the commercial package is limited to 8,000 seconds, which is about two hours and 13 minutes. Moreover, it obtains a solution within 0.13~33.34 seconds depending on the size of scenarios.

This paper proposes a filtering method for effective state vector estimation of highly maneuvering target. It is needed to hit the point called 'sweet spot' to increase the kill probability in missile interception. In paper, a filtering method estimates the length of a moving target tracked by a frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar. High resolution range profiles (HRRPs) is generated from the radar echo signal and then it's integrated into proposed filtering method. To simulate the radar measurement which is close to real, the study on the properties of scattering point of the missile-like target has been conducted with ISAR image for different angle. Also, it is hard to track the target efficiently with existing Kalman filters which has fixed measurement noise covariance matrix R. Therefore the proposed method continuously updates the covariance matrix R with sensor measurements and tracks the target. Numerical simulations on the proposed method shows reliable results under reasonable assumptions on the missile interception scenario.

It is very difficult to detect ballistic missiles because of small cross-sections of the radar and the high maneuverability of the missiles. In addition, it is very difficult to recognize and intercept warheads because of the existence of debris and decoy with similar motion parameters in each flight phase. Therefore, feature vectors based on the maneuver, the micro-motion according to flight phase are needed, and the two types of features must be fused for the efficient recognition of ballistic warhead regardless of the flight phase. In this paper, we introduce feature vectors appropriate for each flight phase and an effective method to fuse them at the feature vector-level and classifier-level. According to the classification simulations using the radar signals predicted by the CAD models, the closer the warhead was to the final destination, the more improved was the classification performance. This was achieved by the classifier-level fusion, regardless of the flight phase in a noisy environment.
