On the background of air defense missile which use radar command guidance, this article focuses on the maneuvering target trajectory simulation and tracking problem by considering possible maneuvering modes and target overload. Taking Serpentine maneuvering (S maneuvering) as an example, the target trajectory is simulated based on overload using stepwise design method, and data are measured through sensor models. Since single model cannot model the maneuvering target motion exactly, the estimation is addressed by combining the interacting multiple model algorithm and unscented Kalman filter algorithm, so as to study the applications of maneuvering target trajectory simulation and tracking in air defense missile systems. The effectiveness of the algorithm is demonstrated with simulated data.

To satisfy the strict requirements of dynamic pressure for air-breathing hypersonic vehicle during the initiation, a dynamic pressure control method based on the model reference sliding mode theory is designed. Firstly, the motion equation of the air-breathing hypersonic vehicle is built, and the dynamic pressure linearization model is established by the small perturbation method. Secondly, the control system, designed by the model reference sliding mode control theory, can quickly track the reference model. Finally, the six degrees of freedom simulation model is built and used for digital simulation. The simulation results show that the designed control system can accurately track the dynamic pressure command with great robustness.
