Design of Distributed Cooperative Control for Multi-Missile System to Track Maneuvering Targets

The current paper provides unique smooth control methods for constructing resilient nonlinear autopilot systems and cooperative control protocols for single and multi-missile systems. To develop the single autopilots, a high-order framework based on asymptotic output stability principles and local relative degree for nonlinear affine systems is first applied. Then, using asymptotic exponential functions and graph theory, free-chattering distributed protocols are constructed to allow multi-missile systems to track and intercept high-risk targets. The Lyapunov approach is used to derive the essential requirements for smooth asymptotic consensus. The proposed method minimizes computing load while enhancing accuracy. The simulation results indicate the efficacy of the recommended strategies.
