To study the application of the generalized predictive adaptive control algorithm in missile control system, the algorithm is presented based on the recursive least square estimation, and a controller of the pitch channel of a missile is designed by using this algorithm. The simulations verify that the designed controller can meet the demands of the task well.
The active control theory and methods of initial disturbances for rockets and missiles are investigated. The rocket or missile/launcher is simplified as a flexible beam excited by a moving varying velocity rigid body which has two points in contact with the beam. The control force is applied at the supporting point on the beam. Active control strategies based on optimal control theory are proposed and computer simulation is carried out. Simulation results are consistent with the theoretical results, and show that the active control strategies proposed can accomplish the purpose to control the initial disturbances actively. The results show that active control of initial disturbances for rockets and missiles is feasible for application.
