Hastürk, Özgür
Nowadays, high portion of tactical missiles use gimbaled seeker. For accurate target tracking, the platform where the gimbal is mounted must be stabilized with respect to the motion of the missile body. Line of sight stabilization is critical for fast and precise tracking and alignment. Although, conventional PID framework solves many stabilization problems, it is reported that many PID feedback loops are poorly tuned. In this thesis, recently introduced robot control method, proxy based sliding mode control, is adopted for the line of sight (LOS) stabilization. Before selecting the proposed method, adaptive neural network sliding mode control and fuzzy control are also implemented for comparative purposes. Experimental and simulation results show a satisfactory response of the proxy based sliding mode controller.

Dynamic modeling and control of a hybrid fin actuation system for an air-to-air missile
Çelik, Tayfun; Ciğeroğlu, Ender; Yazıcıoğlu, Yiğit; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2014)
Air-to-air missiles require high maneuverability. In order to obtain high maneuverability, hybrid fin actuation systems are used. In this study, a hybrid fin actuation system which is composed of aerodynamic control surfaces and thrust vector control is designed. Both aerodynamic and thrust vector control types are explained and the most suitable pair is determined for air-to-air missile. Then, the designed system is physically constructed and system identification procedure is performed. After that three d...
A precise and compact height of burst sensor for guided missiles
Yetkil, Y.B.; Demir, Şimşek; Dagdeviren, B.; Donmez, B. (2017-10-04)
Height of Burst (HOB) sensor is one of the critical parts in guided missiles. While seekers control the guiding scheme of the missile, proximity sensors set the trigger for increased effectiveness of the warhead. For the well-developed guided missiles of Roketsan, a novel proximity sensor is developed. The design of the sensor is for multi-purpose use. In this presentation, the application of the sensor is explained for operation as a HOB sensor in the range of 3m-50m with ± 1m accuracy. Measurement results...
A method for estimating target velocity and range with passive seeker data
Babaoğlu, Buğra Can; Kutay, Ali Türker; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2018)
In basic guidance applications, the line-of-sight (LOS) and line-of-sight rate information, which can be provided using a passive seeker, are enough to steer the missile to the target. However, if one wants to augment the guidance algorithm, further information regarding the engagement and/or target is needed. Unlike passive seekers, active and semi-active seekers may provide such information. Nevertheless, if the missile is equipped with a passive seeker, those parameters need to be estimated. Various meth...
Design, control, and guidance of a tactical missile with lateral thrusters
İpek, Fahrettin Kağan; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2015)
Maneuverability is a key concept for tactical missiles. In this thesis different aerodynamic configurations of a tactical missile is investigated. Effect of fixed wing position on stability and agility is discussed at different phases of the flight. A secondary actuator, lateral thruster system, is introduced. This system employs reaction forces obtained by ejecting high velocity gases at desired times. Unlike aerodynamic fins or thrust vector controlling of the main engine, thruster system control effect i...
