Abstract:This work proposes the use of a logarithmic quantizer to minimize the computational load on the onboard processor of missiles. The quantizer output discretizes the continuous guidance command to a finite set of predefined discrete levels. This in turn puts an end to the need for installing a powerful state of the art modern processor onboard a missile, while enabling designers to install a comparatively cost efficient and compact processor. To include robustness properties, the proposed guidance strategy adopt… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
