The invention provides a rocket vertical landing guidance algorithm considering discontinuous and instant adjustment of engine thrust, a decoupling control strategy of tangential speed control and normal drop point and drop angle control is established, and an engine thrust instruction which is designed by utilizing an impulse conservation principle and meets actual thrust adjustment limitation is provided. According to the method, introduction of multiple complex and difficult-to-process nonlinear constraints is effectively avoided, the efficiency, convergence and reliability of convex optimization solution are improved, the guidance precision and robustness are remarkably enhanced, and higher engineering applicability is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of rocket guidance, in particular to a rocket vertical landing guidance method considering discontinuous and instant adjustable thrust. Background technique [0002] Reusable launch vehicles can effectively reduce launch costs and shorten launch cycles. During the return process of the rocket, it is necessary to use the limited control ability to achieve a wide range of power deceleration, to meet the constraints of the return process and the harsh fixed-point vertical soft landing terminal constraints (such as: position, speed, track angle, etc.), which has a great impact on the rocket’s return. Guidance and control present great challenges. Convex optimization has high efficiency and can handle various constraints such as process and terminal. It has been used more and more in trajectory optimization and guidance of rocket return. However, most of the existing convex optimization algorithms only consider ...

Problems solved by technology

Due to cost and technical constraints, the thrust of the engine actually used by the rocket can only be adjusted within a certain range. The minimum thrust is usually much greater than the rocket's own gravity, and the rocket itself cannot adjust its position and attitude through hovering and other actions.

Secondly, the rocket engine has many restrictions such as single thrust adjustment limit, thrust adjustment waiting interval, thrust establishment process, engine shutdown afte
