Research on Simulation of Infrared Imaging Air-to-Air Missile Guidance System

For the demand of research and evaluation of the tracking and guidance algorithm which is applied to the air-to-air missile infrared imaging guidance,the method of simulation system implementation was proposed. Using the FlightGear,the open source of aerodynamic simulation tool,and function library of computer graph,the (6 degree of freedom) 6DOF models of target and missile were taken,which could provide the necessary dynamic and radiation characteristics. In every block,different algorithms can be loaded as convenient as different configurations of seekers,which guarantees the demand of research and debug of the algorithm. This system has been applied to the tracking algorithm of one air-to-air missile infrared imaging guidance system,which has achieved ideal result.
