Multiple missiles cooperative guidance based on leader-follower strategy

According to the characteristics of multiple missiles cooperative guidance, a time-cooperative guidance architecture based on leader-follower strategy is proposed. This architecture is composed of individual guidance for each missile and coordinating strategy of the whole system. The central process unit situated at the leader coordinates the system, and the cooperative information is broadcasted from leader to followers. The coordinate information includes expected impact time and relative motion information of leader and target. The time-cooperative guidance architecture has the characteristics of brief structure, short coordinate time and little information to hand on. For the features of structure and the follower have no seeker, a specific and feasible algorithm of line of sight rate is presented, the requirement of follower computation and detection equipment is decreased. Simulation results show the proposed architecture can realize coordinated attack effectively.
