Guided Missile with an Intelligent Agent

Abstract

Guided missiles involve the use of a conventional deviated pursuit course like proportionalnavigation algorithm and its variants, which is optimal when the speed advantage of the guided missile is veryhighandthe target maneouvering is minimal. Against the present-day aircraft,whichemploys fly-by-wire technology for high maneouverability andhigh speed, missiles needto have amuchhigher speed advantage or to use a combination of artificial intelligence and modern controlalgorithms. Results of simulation of pursuit and evasion with an autonomous intelligent agentincorporated in the control loop are presented.
