    The design problem of the terminal guidance law for intercepting high-speed maneuvering target considering the second-order dynamic characteristics of the autopilot was discussed.A local stability theory was proposed and was used in analysis of the system state variables.According to the influence of variables on the guidance effect the system was divided into two subsystems.Then we designed the Lyapunov function for the subsystems and proved their stabilities and launched the global stability from the local stability.Throughout the whole design process only the change of line-of-sight rate was taken into consideration which simplified the design process greatly.The design of the guidance law could effectively overcome the impact of the autopilot dynamic delay on guidance accuracy.The simulation results show that when the target is making maneuver and there is a large lag in the autopilot the guidance law still has a high guidance precision.

    Considering the fact that the target tracking problems are always modeled by a linear system equation and a non-linear measurement equation we proposed a Reduced Square-root Cubature Kalman Filter (RSCKF) to improve the estimation accuracy and the real-time performance.The simplified algorithm utilizes state transition matrix to calculate one-step prediction value of state variable and covariance matrix in time update step which avoids the complex process of the original algorithm.According to theoretical derivation the value of time update step in the simplified SCKF is the same as that of the one-step prediction of the Kalman filter.Finally the two algorithms were used in bearing-only tracking experiment and the complexity was analyzed quantitatively.Simulation results show that the new algorithm can reduce the operation time effectively and improve the tracking accuracy.

    It is difficult to detect a target with a low speed since it may drop into main lobe clutter in both time domain and frequency domain. A multi-channel SAR-GMTI algorithm was proposed to solve this problem which can suppress the clutter with Displaced Phase Center Antenna (DPCA) estimate the parameters of moving target with Fractional Fourier Transform (FrFT) and acquire the scene image by constructing the azimuth compression function. The proposed approach takes full advantages of the abundant information of three channels makes use of the ideal clutter cancellation capability of DPCA technique and the fine energy focusing ability of the FrFT which can estimate the parameter of moving target accurately including radial acceleration. The results of the simulation indicate the effectiveness of the methods.

    The tracking of the maneuvering spatial target was studied.A maneuvering spatial target tracking model applying bearing-only measurements was proposed with consideration of the influence of J2 perturbation and the system state model of the maneuvering target.The square-root version of the Cubature Kalman Filter (SCKF) was introduced for target tracking.According to the different maneuvering modes of the target the estimation accuracy of SCKF under different way of maneuvering was analyzed through computer simulation.The simulation result show that when the maneuverability of target is the same, coplanar orbital maneuvering is more easily to make the filter diffuse than non-coplanar orbital maneuvering.Comparison of four maneuvering modes show that SCKF is most sensitive to transverse maneuvering and the maneuvering along the path between detector and target is most likely to be tracked stably again.

    Aircraft cockpit display system has developed from traditional 2D to multi-dimensional display mode. As a human-computer interface development tool VAPS XT can improve the design efficiency of cockpit display but does not support 3D display design directly. We proposed a scheme for second development of VAPS XT which supports basic 3D cockpit display simulation design with default VAPS XT configuration by use of OpenGL library and DEM elevation database thus to realize 3D cockpit display development with VAPS XT. This paper introduces the development process of 3D cockpit display with VAPS XT including the user development process data processing of 3D terrain database coordination transformation and foundation of rendering process. The whole process can be applied as new way for cockpit human-machine interface development. The simulation result shows that the process is an effective and convenient verification technology for 3D cockpit display design and simulation.
