Time-optimal performances are analyzed in the sense of inner loop. A varying-time sharing thrusting logic is suggested as a new sequential paired thrusting logic for fast maneuvers of satellites with coupled thruster configuration. Its time-optimal maneuvering performance is compared with two conventional thrusting logics: separate thrusting logic and constant-time sharing sequential paired thrusting logic. It is found that the newly suggested varying-time sharing thrusting logic can be easily implemented by adjusting the conventional constant-time logic with its thrust on-time, while it can reduce the maneuvering time enormously as much as the separate thrusting logic. The performance of the logic is simulated on the agile maneuvering spacecraft model KOMPSAT-II.

The input estimation method estimates maneuvering input acceleration in order to track a maneuvering target. In this paper, the optimal input estimator is derived by choosing the MAP hypothesis among maneuvering input transition hypotheses under the assumption that a maneuvering input acceleration is a semi-Markov process. The optimal input estimation method cannot be realized because the optimal filter should consider every maneuver onset time hypothesis from filter starting time to current time which increase rapidly. Hence the suboptimal filter using a sliding window is proposed. Since the proposed method can consider all hypotheses of input transitions inside the window, it is general enough to include Bogler's input estimation method. Simulation results show, however, that we can obtain a good performance even when the filter considering just one input transition in the window is used. (author). 9 refs., 3 figs., 1 tab.

Time-Optimal solutions for attitude control with reaction wheels as well as with thrusters are studied. The suggested varying-time-sharing ratio thrusting is found to reduce the maneuvering time enormously. The hybrid control such as sequential hybrid and simultaneous hybrid with reaction wheels and thrusters are considered. The results show that simultaneous hybrid method reduces the maneuver time very much. Spacecraft model is KOrea Multi-Purpose SATellite(KOMPSAT)-II, which is being developed by KARI in KOREA as an agile maneuvering satellite.

Reaction wheels and thrusters are commonly used for the satellite attitude control. Since satellites frequently need fast maneuvers, the minimum time maneuvers have been extensively studied. When the speed of attitude maneuver is restricted due to the wheel torque capacity of low level, the combinational use of wheel and thruster is considered. In this paper, minimum time optimal control performances with reaction wheels and thrusters are studied. We first identify the features of the maneuvers of the satellite with reaction wheels only. It is shown that the time-optimal maneuver for the satellite with four reaction wheels in a pyramid configuration occurs on the fashion of single axis rotation. Pseudo control logic for reaction wheels is successfully adopted for smooth and chattering-free time-optimal maneuvers. Secondly, two different thrusting logics for satellite time-optimal attitude maneuver are compared with each other: constant time-sharing thrusting logic and varying time-sharing thrusting logic. The newly suggested varying time-sharing thrusting logic is found to reduce the maneuvering time dramatically. Finally, the hybrid control with reaction wheels and thrusters are considered. The simulation results show that the simultaneous actuation of reaction wheels and thrusters with varying time-sharing logic reduces the maneuvering time enormously. Spacecraft model is Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite (KOMPSAT)-2 which is being developed in Korea as an agile maneuvering satellite.

Optimal impact angle control guidance law and its variants for intercepting a maneuvering target are introduced in this paper. The linear quadratic(LQ) optimal control theory is reviewed first to setup framework of guidance law derivation, called the sweep method. As an example, the inversely weighted time-to-go energy optimal control problem to obtain the optimal impact angle control guidance law for a fixed target is solved via the sweep method. Since this optimal guidance law is not applicable for a moving target due to the angle mismatch at the impact instant, the law is modified to three different biased proportional navigation(PN) laws: the flight path angle control law, the line-of-sight(LOS) angle control law, and the relative flight path angle control law. Effectiveness of the guidance laws are verified via numerical simulations.

This paper deals with design procedure of online guidance and control law for future missiles that requires agile maneuverability. For the purpose, the missile with high powered side thruster is proposed. The guidance and control law for such missiles is discussed from a point of view of optimal control theory in this paper. Minimum time problem is solved for the approximated system. It is derived that bang- bang control is optimal input from the necessary conditions of optimal solution. Feedback guidance without iterative calculation is useful for actual systems. In this paper. multiple design point method is applied to design feedback gains and feed forward inputs of the guidance and control law. The numerical results show that the proposed guidance and control law has a high -performance for wide-ranging boundary conditions.

Due to a recently developed approach to autopilot controller design for highly-maneuvering BTT (bank-to-turn) missiles, we now can derive explicitly the final-phase optimal guidance (OG) law considering the autopilot dynamics through direct use of the well-known linear optimal control theory. The proposed OG law can decrease the miss distance (MD) remarkably with small acceleration and roll rate profile at the time of interception.

In the paper, a robust control mechanism is presented to maneuver a flexible spacecraft with the deflection reduction during large slewing operation at the same time. For deflection reduction and maneuvering of the flexible spacecraft, a control mechanism is developed with the application of stochastic optimal sliding-mode control, a linear tracking model and input shaping technique. A start-coast-stop maneuver is employed as a slewing strategy. It is shown that the control mechanism with he strategic maneuver results in better performance and is more efficient than rigid-body-like maneuver, by applying to the Spacecraft Control Laboratory Experiment (SCOLE) system in a space environment.

This paper proposes the guidance laws for an agile turn of air-to-air missiles during the initial boost phase. Optimal solution for the agile turn is obtained based on the optimal control theory with a simplified missile dynamic model. Angle-of-attack command generating methods for completion of agile turn are then proposed from the optimal solution. Collision triangle condition for non-maneuvering target is reviewed and implemented for update of terminal condition for the agile turn. The performance of the proposed method is compared with an existing homing guidance law and the minimum-time optimal solution through simulations under various initial engagement scenarios. Simulation results verify that transition to homing phase after boost phase with the proposed method is more effective than direct usage of the homing guidance law.

An optimal path generation method considering the safety of UGV(Unmanned Ground Vehicle) is proposed and demonstrated through examples. Among various functions of UGV, real-time obstacle avoidance is a key issue to realize realistic scenario in FCS(Future Combat Systems). A two-dimensional narrow corridor environment is considered as a test field. For each step of UGV movement, two objectives are considered: One is to minimize the distance to the target and the other to maximize the distance to the nearest point of an obstacle. A weighted objective function is used in the optimization problem. Equality and inequality constraints are taken to secure the UGV's dynamics and safety. The weighting factors are controlled by a fuzzy controller which is constructed by a fuzzy rule set and membership functions. Simulations are performed for two cases. First the weighting factors are considered as constant values to understand the characteristics of the corresponding solutions and then as variables that are adjusted by the fuzzy controller. The results are satisfactory for realistic situations considered. The proposed optimal path generation with the fuzzy control is expected to be well applicable to real environment.
