description | At present, two kinds of shortages exist in the research on cooperative combat. One is that radar detection threat (which cannot be ignored) is rarely considered. The other is that limited efforts have been made on the cooperative penetration trajectories under the conditions of long distance, vast airspace, and wide speed range. In order to offset the shortages of the research on cooperative combat, the penetration trajectory optimization method considering the influence of aircraft radar cross-section (RCS) and the cooperative penetration strategy is proposed in this study. Firstly, the RCS data are calculated by the physical optics (PO) method. The radar detection threat model is established considering the influence of the aircraft RCS. Then, a trajectory optimization framework with the dynamic model, constraint conditions, and optimal objectives is formed. Using the hp-adaptive Radau pseudospectral method, the optimal control problem for a single aircraft flight is solved. Finally, a cooperative penetration strategy is proposed to solve the cooperative penetration problem of multiaircraft. The impact time and angle constraints are given, and the virtual target point is introduced for terminal guidance. Two cases are simulated and verified. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method is effective. The single aircraft can effectively penetrate, and the multiaircraft can fulfill the requirement of cooperative impact time and angle under the condition of meeting the minimum threat of radar detection. |
