Proportional navigation (PN) is a well-known guidance law for two-vehicle engagement. In the engagement, miss distance (the closest between two vehicles) desired to be zero that can achieved by annulling line-of-sight (LOS) rate. The PN requires information of LOS rate and, if it available, closing velocity relative approaching speed target). system may degrade performance due target maneuvers. Such maneuvers should compensated with system. However, difficult obtain accurate target's...
