Description
This paper describes a missile guidance problem in which the objective is to guide an interceptor missile towards both deterministic and stochastic targets. We show how this guidance problem can be naturally posed within an optimal stopping time control framework (where both the control and time horizon are designed to optimize a performance index). We believe this to be the first time the missile guidance problem has been posed as an optimal stopping problem. Solutions to the optimal stopping guidance problem are obtained via dynamic programming principles; however, no closed form solutions are apparent. Numeric-solutions are obtained via the Markov chain numerical approximation procedure.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
