In order to design the conceptual configuration of the short-range ballistic missile, the authors have established an optimization problem considering various aspects such as volume, aerodynamics, propulsion, structure, stability, and flight trajectory. For this purpose, the existing missile cases were analyzed and the design conditions and performance indices were derived. The performance of the whole system was analyzed by integrating each subsystem's model. Through the design example, we analyzed the relationship between various design variables and final performances.

Trajectory of ballistic missile is defined by inherent flight dynamics, which decided range and maneuvering characteristics. It is crucial to predict range and maneuvering characteristics of ballistic missile in KAMD (Korea Air and Missile Defense) to minimize damage due to ballistic missile attacks, Nowadays, needs for applying AI(Artificial Intelligence) technologies are increasing due to rapid developments of DNN(Deep Neural Networks) technologies. To apply these DNN technologies amount of data are required for superviesed learning, but trajectory data of ballistic missiles is limited because of security issues. Trajectory data could be considered as multivariate time series including many variables. And augmentation in time series data is a developing area of research. In this paper, we tried to augment trajectory data of ballistic missiles using recently developed methods. We used TimeVAE(Time Variational AutoEncoder) method and TimeGAN(Time Generative Adversarial Networks) to synthesize missile trajectory data. We also compare the results of two methods and analyse for future works.

The development of guided missile requires complex guidance schemes and hardware units because of high maneuver, delicate and variable missions. In this point of view, simulation systems and facilities which test missile hardwares and softwares are needed. This paper introduces the hardware-in-the loop simulation system and facilities which include the real-time computation systems and 3 Axis FMS(Flight Motion Simulator).

A stabilization scheme of a missile actuator using fuzzy controller is proposed. A variable-reluctance stepping motor adopted as a actuator is critically restricted useful operation since pronounced oscillatory behaviour at a certain input frequencies. The previous stabilization scheme. which employs frequency modulation, of the clock-pulse source using derived from the modulation envelope of the total intake current is modified using fuzzy control. The proposed scheme has apparent advantage, particularly in size, mass and flexibility.

In the recent weapon system trend, it is required to develop small and low cost guidance missile to track and strike the enemy target effectively. Controling the such small drone typed weapon demands a integrated electronic device that equipped with not only a wireless network interface, a high resolution camera, various sensors for target tracking, and position and attitude control but also a high performance processor that integrates and processes those sensor outputs in real-time. In this paper, we propose the android smartphone as a solution for that and implement the guidance and control application of the missile. Furthermore, the performance of the implemented guidance and control application is analyzed through the simulation.

The balance of power in conventional forces between the two Koreas works in favor of the South Korea in the Korea peninsula. But, the balancing mechanism between the two Koreas in asymmetric forces like nuclear and missile forces works absolutely in favor of the North Korea. That's why it should be timely for the ROK military to review existing strategy and revise a new counter strategy against the threat posed by the North Korea's nuclear and missile forces. The ROK military is now developing 4D, KAMD, KILL Chain strategies as means to cope with the North Korea's nuclear and missile threats. Considering efforts and resources invested now, the strategies are expected to be in place in next five or more years. However, approaches to those strategies seem to be rather fragmentary and conceptual than comprehensive and pragmatic. The types of strategies against the North Korea's military threats need to be a deterrence in peace time and a fighting and winning in war time in the Korean theater. But, the most important element in the deterrence strategy is the credibility. This study concludes with an new strategic concept titled "ADAD(Assured Defense, Assured Destruction)" as an alternative to existing strategies to deal with the North Korea's nuclear and missile threats.

This paper describes the utility of satellite sensors of the missile defense system using the estimation theory. The inherent flight characteristics of the missiles give the limitations in the response time and the countermeasures. In this point, the early warning and surveillance satellites are important. Using the Extended Kalman Filter, it is analysed LPU and MLU in DSP and SBIRS satellites, and presented the quantitative uncertainties of state estimates of non-rotational DSP compare to the rotating one.

Classifying the front body of the missile and debris of a high-speed missile in intercepting a high-speed missile is an important issue. The motion of the front body of the missile is characterized by precession, but the motion of the debris in the boosting part separation phase is characterized by tumbling. There are periodic patterns caused by the precession or tumbling motion on the dynamic radar cross section (RCS). In addition, there are statistical properties caused by the change pattern of the dynamic RCS. A method is proposed to classify the front body of the missile and debris using periodic and statistical properties of the dynamic RCS. Three kinds of feature vector are extracted from the periodic and statistical properties of the dynamic RCS. The front body of the missiles and debris was classified using a support vector machine.

In this paper, we consider the anti-attack procedure of a ballistic missile defense system (BMDS) at different operating frequencies at its phased-array radar station. The interception performance is measured in terms of lateral divert (LD), which denotes the minimum acceleration amount available in an interceptor to compensate for prediction error for a successful intercept. Dependence of the frequency on estimation accuracy that leads directly to prediction error is taken into account, in terms of angular measurement noises. The estimation extraction is performed by means of an extended Kalman filter (EKF), considering two typical re-entry trajectories of a non-maneuvering ballistic missile (BM). The simulation results show better performance at higher frequency for both tracking and intercepting aspects.
