Abstract:

This paper reviews the development history of multi-missile cooperative guidance, including the main research findings and the latest progresses. In view of the fact that the existing results of the research on cooperative guidance are mainly concerned with time coordination and the open-loop cooperative guidance has been well reviewed, this paper focuses on the close-loop time cooperative guidance accordingly. Based on its framework, the multi-missile time cooperative guidance can be categorized into two types:the two-level guidance, and "leader-follower" one. It can be also categorized into centralized and decentralized one based on communication topology among missiles. The two types of cooperative guidance frameworks are discussed first. The centralized and decentralized multi-missile cooperative guidance laws are then analyzed. The merits and demerits of these types of cooperative guidance laws are also summarized. A short discussion section is included to propose several promising research directions for further investigation.

Key words: multi-missile, missile guidance, cooperative guidance, communication, two-level coordination, leader-follower, salvo attack, impact time
