Abstract :
The problem of angular glint of flying vehicle formation and its application in anti-interception is studied. The angular glint of the flying vehicle formation is modeled as evenly distributed N-point scattering centers with method of phase gradient, and the linear errors of the angular glint and its distribution characteristics are calculated. Finally, simulations of conflicts of a formation consists of four aircraft against a typical surface-to-air missile were done, the results of which verified the effectiveness of the method proposed.
