Abstract :
Conventional missile guidance laws assume that only one target is present. This paper considers how a multiple target scenario, with a state estimator represented by a multi-modal probability distribution, could be handled. A control law, based on a bounded terminal cost, is proposed. A simple simulation is used to demonstrate some of its properties
