Abstract EN
The trajectory of a tubular launched cruising unmanned aerial vehicle is optimized using the modified direct collocation method for attacking a target at back slope under a wind gradient.
A mathematical model of the cruising unmanned aerial vehicle is established based on its operational and motion features under a wind gradient to optimize the trajectory.
The motion characteristics of “altitude adjustment” and “suicide attack” are taken into full account under the combat circumstance of back slope time key targets.
By introducing a discrete time function, the trajectory optimization is converted into a nonlinear programming problem and the SNPOT software is applied to solve for the optimal trajectory of the missile under different wind loads.
The simulation results show that, for optimized trajectories, the average attack time decreased by up to 29.1% and the energy consumption is reduced by up to 25.9% under specified wind gradient conditions.
A, ωdire, and Wmax have an influence on the flight trajectories of cruising unmanned aerial vehicle.
This verifies that the application of modified direct collocation method is reasonable and feasible in an effort to achieve more efficient missile trajectories.
