Model predictive control of a direct fire projectile equipped with canards

Creator:

Ollerenshaw, Douglas R.

Abstract:

Launch uncertainties in uncontrolled direct fire projectiles can lead to significant impact point dispersion, even at relatively short range. A model predictive control scheme for direct fire projectiles is investigated to reduce impact point dispersion. The control law depends on projectile linear theory to create an approximate linear model of...
