Abstract

Guidance is one of the key parts of modern aerospace vehicles since it enables improved autonomy by guiding the vehicle to approach a specific stationary/dynamic position. Optimal control theory is known as a valuable and systematic tool in the design and development of guidance algorithms. We explore the characteristics of classical proportional navigation guidance and present the motivation of the development of new optimal guidance laws in this chapter. The overall aim of this book is then summarized and the organization of the entire book, together with some highlights of each chapter, are presented.
