Anti-Ship Missile Target Selection Method Based on the Target RCS Information

Abstract:

To improve anti-ship missiles selection capability over the intended target of the ship formation, a method is presented to select intended target by utilizing the mutual locations and RCS information of the ship formation. Firstly, this method takes advantage of the hausdorff distance to match the optimum position of the point set which are respectively acquired by fire-control radar and terminal guidance radar. Then, the point sets common points are acquired by the bidirectional nearest neighbor rule. At last, the common points are further selected by utilizing the RCS information of the target. The composite metric distance method is presented by utilizing the targets RCS information and the formation information, and the selection probability of the intended target is analyzed. The simulation experiments show that this method is free from the influence of the dispersion error of the control end and the whole maneuver of the formation target, and its correct selection probability over the intended target is higher than the method which uses the formation information only.
