Abstract

A guidance scheme for controlling the relative geometry of multiple flight vehicle formation flying is proposed. Each flight vehicle in the formation takes the roles of leader and follower simultaneously except for the formation leader. In this scheme, the flight commands for a leader are shared by all the followers and this leaders to a synchronized flight of all flight vehicles comprising the formation. Lyapunov stability theorem is used to obtain the guidance law. High fidelity nonlinear simulation results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed guidance law using a reconnaissance and surveillance mission example.

본 논문에서는 다수 비행체의 편대 비행 시 상호 기하학적 관계 유지에 필요한 유도 법칙과 비선형 시뮬레이션 결과를 제시하였다. 편대 내의 각 비행체는 편대 Leader를 제외하고 모두 Leader와 Follower의 역할을 동시에 맡으며, Leader에 의한 명령은 모든 Follower에게 분배되고 따라서 편대를 이루는 모든 비행체들의 동시기동비행(Synchronized Flight)을 가능하게 한다. 편대 비행 유도 법칙은 가까운 미래 시각에 예상되는 기하학적 오차 그리고 Lyapunov 안정성 이론에 근거하여 도출하였고, 정찰과 감시 임무 예제에 관한 고정밀 비선형 시뮬레이션 결과를 통하여 제안된 유도 법칙의 성능을 검증하였다
