  • In this paper, a fuel minimizing closed loop explicit inertial guidance algorithm for the orbit injection of a rocket is developed. In this formulation, the fuel burning rate and magnitude of thrust are assumed constant, and the motion of a rocket is assumed to be subject to the average inverse-square gravity, but with negligible atmospheric effects. The optimum thrust angle for obtaining the given velocity vector in the shortest time with minimizing fuel consumption is first determined, and then the additive thrust angle for targeting the final position vectors is determined by using Pontryagin's Maximum Principle. To establish the real time processing, many algorithms of the onboard guidance software are simplified. Simulations for the explicit guidance algorithm, for the 2nd-stage flight of the N-1 rocket, are carried out. The results show that the guidance algorithm works well in the presence of the maximum .+-.10 % initial velocity and altitude error. The effects of the guidance cycle time is also examined.

  • Real-time techniques are motivated by a number of factors including the potential for direct acquisition of diagnostic quality images, facilitation of patient-specific imaging parameters, and reduced examination time. Real-time MRI includes not only a rapid pulse sequence but also high speed image reconstruction and easy interactivity. The frame rate of the real-time technique used should be matched to the physiological timeframes under study. Principal applications thusfar have been in localization, fluoroscopic triggering, guidance of other processes, and potentially in the generation of diagnostic images of moving structures.

  • This work deals with an explicit guidance and control architecture for autonomous lunar ascent and orbit injection, i.e., the locally-flat near-optimal guidance, accompanied by nonlinear reduced-attitude control. This is a new explicit guidance scheme, based on the local projection of the position and velocity variables, in conjunction with the real-time solution of the associated minimum-time problem. A recently-introduced quaternion-based reduced-attitude control algorithm, which enjoys quasi-global stability properties, is employed to drive the longitudinal axis of the ascent vehicle toward the desired direction. Actuation, based on thrust vectoring, is modeled as well. Extensive Monte Carlo simulations prove the effectiveness of the guidance, control, and actuation architecture proposed in this study for precise lunar orbit insertion, in the presence of nonnominal flight conditions.

  • This paper deals with the choice of guidance gain for the time-to-go polynomial (POLY) guidance law when the acceleration limit is existed. POLY is derived based on the assumption that guidance commands are formed by a time-to-go polynomial function. The main characteristic of POLY is that any positive values can be used for its guidance gain. For this reason, it is ambiguous to choose a proper guidance gain. To relieve this difficulty, we firstly derive the closed-form solution of acceleration command and figure out the relationship between the maximum acceleration and guidance gain. From this analysis, we provide a guideline for choosing a guidance gain which satisfies the desired acceleration limit. Finally, the proposed method is demonstrated by simulation study.

  • A target adaptive guidance(TAG) algorithm is proposed employing the near-zone signal that can be measured from an infrared seeker. The guidance order is composed of a conventional PNG command and an additional command to be calculable from an additional LOS rate between a hot point of target and a required intercept point. The characteristic of the near-zone signal is similar to that of LOS rate that is inversely proportional to the square of time-to-go. Hence the proposed scheme can be applied to real systems with no estimator for time-to-go. From analysis results on the miss distance with perfect missile and perfect seeker, it follows that the proposed TAG algorithm guarantees missile to be ideally guided to the required intercept point. And it is less affected by the TAG start time and a proportional navigation ratio than other TAG schemes using a LOS rate such as a step bias or a ramp bias.

  • The efficiency of the real-time route guidance system(RGS) depends largely on the quality of route search algorithms. In this paper, we implement the coarse grid method(CGM) in mathematical programming for finding a good quality route of real-time RGS in large-scale networks. The proposed CGM examines coarser and wider networks as the search phase proceeds, in stead of searching the whole network at once. Naturally, we can significantly reduce computational efforts in terms of search time and memory requirement. We demonstrate the practical effectiveness of the proposed CGM with nationwide real road network simulation.

  • This study proposes an estimate method of willingness to pay(WTP) for real-time route guidance systems using contingent valuation method(CVM) under double bounded dichotomous choice question(DBDCQ) and analysis for impact factors of WTP estimation. This study assumed that provided real-time traffic information service is optimal route concepts dealing with traffic conditions on origin-destination. Analysis targets were classified into two groups as short distance path and middle distance path for estimating WTP for realtime route guidance system in a year using the survival analysis method and the regression model with personal information, actual condition and satisfaction of information usage and users' awareness and usage of facilities. As a result, mean WTP of realtime route guidance system is 4,034won/year in short distance path, and 4,884won/year in middle distance path. Therefore real-time route guidance system for longer distance path is recognized as more valuable than shorter distance path. Moreover, the necessity of information was required on a higher income group and higher WTP was estimated on owners of vehicle group and lower awareness of a route group.

  • This paper proposes a synthesis of new guidance law to generate an evasive maneuver against enemy's missile interception while considering its impact angle, acceleration, and field-of-view constraints. The first component of the synthesis is a new function of repulsive Artificial Potential Field to generate the evasive maneuver as a real-time dynamic obstacle avoidance. The terminal impact angle and terminal acceleration constraints compliance are based on Time-to-Go Polynomial Guidance as the second component. The last component is the Logarithmic Barrier Function to satisfy the field-of-view limitation constraint by compensating the excessive total acceleration command. These three components are synthesized into a new guidance law, which involves three design parameter gains. Parameter study and numerical simulations are delivered to demonstrate the performance of the proposed repulsive function and guidance law. Finally, the guidance law simulations effectively achieve the zero terminal miss distance, while satisfying an evasive maneuver against intercept missile, considering impact angle, acceleration, and field-of-view limitation constraints simultaneously.

  • The objective of this study is to enhance neural-network guidance to consider the impact condition. The optimal impact condition in this study is defined as an head-on attack. Missile impact-angle error, which is a measure of the degree to which the missile is not steering for a head-on attack, can also have an influence on the final miss distance. Therefore midcourse guidance is used to navigate the missile, reducing the deviation angle from head on, given some constraints on the missile g performance. A coordinate transformation is introduced to simplify the three-dimensional guidance law and, consequently, to reduce training data. Computer simulation results show that the neural-network guidance law with the coordinate transformation reduces impact-angle errors effectively.

  • A composite guidance scheme is proposed for air-to-ground anti-tank missiles launched from an airborne platform. Long-range anti-tank missiles usually use a fiber optic line (FOL) for the datalink between an operator and the missile to obtain real-time target information and to command the missile. Also, impact angle control is used to maximize the warhead effectiveness, but it should be carefully implemented due to interference between the launch platform and the FOL. Thus, the proposed guidance scheme takes into account both impact angle and FOL constraints. Under system lag and acceleration limits, a selection method of guidance gains and calculation logic of the maximum achievable impact angle are proposed for a guideline of practical implementation. The performance of the proposed guidance scheme is investigated by nonlinear simulations with various engagement conditions.
