Abstract

See full text

In a steering loop for missiles which are guided to a target by means of a seeker head, the seeker head having a limited field of view, the seeker head determines the line of sight to the target by look angles with respect to missile-fixed pitch and yaw axes. A signal processing computer receives the seeker head signals and generates signals which determine the motion of the missile. These signals are applied to a steering system and guide the missile to the target. In order to avoid loss of the target due to limitations of the field of view of the seeker head, the signal processing computer influences the signals determining the motion of the missile such as to ensure a motion of the missile which holds the line of sight always within the field of view.
