Abstract: | A novel three‐dimensional fault‐tolerant control guidance law is proposed for interception of maneuvering targets in the presence of external disturbances, actuator failures, and control input constraints. The input‐to‐state stability (ISS) method is introduced to design the fault‐tolerant control guidance law to guarantee robust tracking of a maneuvering target. Then, a saturated fault‐tolerant control guidance law is constructed using a modified saturation function to ensure the resulting control signal will never incur input constraints, and the convergence to a small neighborhood of origin is ensured in theory. Simulation results show that the presented approach is effective in achieving a successful interception against target maneuvers, external disturbances, actuator failures, and control input constraints. |
