Abstract

The operation of the precision-guided missiles with seekers is becoming more and more dominant since the modern wars became geographically localized like anti-terror campaigns and civil wars. Imaging seekers are relatively low-price and applicable to various operational conditions. The image tracker, however, requires highly advanced method for the target tracking under harsh missile flight condition. Missile roll can reduce the tracking performance since it introduces big differences in imagery. The missile roll is inevitable because of the disturbance and flight control error. Consequently, the errors of the subsystems should be under control for the stable performance of the tracker and the whole system. But the performance prediction by some simple metric is almost impossible since the target signature and the tracker are highly nonlinear. We established M&S tool for a precision-guided missile with imaging seeker and analyzed the roll effects to tracking and system performance. Furthermore, we defined the specification of missile subsystems through error analysis to guarantee system performance.

현대전이 내전과 대테러전과 같은 국지전 양상으로 변화하면서, 탐색기를 포함한 정밀 유도무기의 운용 비중이 점점 증가하고 있다. 영상탐색기는 상대적으로 저가이며, 다양한 운용환경에 적용이 가능하다. 다만 유도무기에 적용되는 영상추적기술은 유도탄의 비행 환경 하에서 표적 추적을 수행해야하므로 상당히 고난이도의 기술이 요구된다. 그 중 유도탄의 롤은 다른 거동에 비해 탐색기 영상에 큰 변화를 주게 되어 영상 추적 성능을 크게 저하시킬 수 있다. 롤은 외란 및 비행 제어 오차로 항상 발생할 수밖에 없으나, 영상 추적 및 체계 성능에 영향을 주지 않는 수준을 판단하여 구성품의 오차 관리를 해야 한다. 하지만 표적의 영상 특성 및 영상 추적기의 높은 비선형성으로 단순한 기준으로 성능 예측을 한다는 것은 매우 어려운 일이다. 본 연구에서는 영상탐색기가 적용된 정밀유도무기의 M&S 환경을 구축하고, 유도탄의 롤 거동이 영상 추적 및 체계 성능에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 또한 오차 분석을 통해 유도무기 성능보장을 위해 요구되는 구성품의 규격을 도출하였다.
