This paper gives a thorough investigation on formulating and solving quantum problems by extended analytical mechanics that extends canonical variables to complex domain. With this complex extension, we show that quantum mechanics becomes a part of analytical mechanics and hence can be treated integrally with classical mechanics. Complex canonical variables are governed by Hamilton equations of motion, which can be derived naturally from Schrö dinger equation. Using complex canonical variables, a formal proof of the quantization axiom p fi p = Ài h$, which is the kernel in constructing quantum-mechanical systems, becomes a one-line corollary of Hamilton mechanics. The derivation of quantum operators from Hamilton mechanics is coordinate independent and thus allows us to derive quantum operators directly under any coordinate system without transforming back to Cartesian coordinates. Besides deriving quantum operators, we also show that the various prominent quantum effects, such as quantization, tunneling, atomic shell structure, Aharonov-Bohm effect, and spin, all have the root in Hamilton mechanics and can be described entirely by Hamilton equations of motion.

True proportional navigation with varying closing speed is called realistic true proportional navigation, which is implemented in practice. Our main goal is to derive the complete solutions of three-dimensional realistic true proportional navigation for nonmaneuvering and maneuvering targets. Three coupled nonlinear second-order state equations describing the relative motion are solved analytically without any linearization for performance and trajectory analysis. Properties of three-dimensional realistic true proportional navigation such as capture region, range-to-go, time-to-go, and two aspect angles within spherical coordinates are all obtained in closed form. Furthermore, the two-player game between three-dimensional realistic true proportional navigation and threedimensional ideal proportional navigation is investigated analytically in the pursuit-evasion scenario, where a realistic true proportional navigation guided missile is designed to pursue an ideal proportional navigation guided target. It is found that an ideal proportional navigation guided target is much harder to intercept than a realistic true proportional navigation guided target.
