Sliding Mode Observer and Controller Design for Nonlinear Supersonic Missile

摘要

The nonlinear equations of motion were constructed for a supersonic anti-warship missile. In order to estimate the unknown angle-of-attack, a sliding mode observer was designed. The convergence capability of the sliding mode observer was analyzed according to the Lyapunov stability theory. A sliding mode controller was designed to drive the missile normal overload output to track its command, based on the output-redefinition approach. In order to confirm the performance of the designed sliding mode observer and controller, a simulation example was carried out for nonlinear missile model. The simulation results show the fast convergence capability of the designed sliding mode observer and controller.
