Abstract:

The problem of implementing a three-state optimal control law in an anti-tank weapon system was examined. The weapon was represented by a detailed six degree of freedom simulation. The derivation of the control law is included along with a four-state simulation that was used to model the 6DOF simulation. The procedure used to implement the control law is given in Chapter III, and the method of obtaining optimal control parameters appears in Appendix C. The question of sensitivity is also examined using both simulations.
