A coverage-based guidance algorithm of multiple interceptors for uncertain targets

This paper addresses the cooperative guidance problem of multiple interceptors to capture the mobile targets. Due to the measurement noise and decoys, the location of the real target can only be described by a probability density function. A coverage-based guidance algorithm is developed to maximize the probability of interception. Moreover, the lower bound of interception probability is given, which goes up with the increase of the number of interceptors. Finally, the numerical example illustrates the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
