Abstract

The application discloses a time coordination optimal arc guidance method for an underactuated aircraft, and the method is used for solving the problem of intersection docking of the aircraft with multiple constraints. The method is based on an arc, and the predictive correction thought and the optimal control theory are adopted. When the method is applied to the guidance of the underactuated aircraft, the desired time constraint can be met without speed adjustment, more accurate time control can be realized, and energy consumption is relatively small.
