A Conjugate Gradient Optimization Algorithm for Wavy Trajectory of Missile

Zhi Gang Wang, Ning Zhang

Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

Since the traditional parabola trajectory is prone to be head off, wavy trajectory has the flight characteristics of defense penetration ability and increasing range. On the basis of flight characteristics of wavy trajectory missile, a method for flight program angle was designed. A specific formula was given. An optimization model was established. A conjugate gradient optimizing algorithm was used to solve the model and the result is compared with the former trajectory. It shows that optimized wavy trajectory can prove the feasibility of increasing range and valid defense penetration ability.
