In this paper, a bias term to enhance proportional navigation is designed through an error signal that is a function of pursuit angles with the objective of accommodating both the problem of impact angle control against a stationary target and the problem of path following using the virtual target concept. The design leads to a second order transfer function describing the linear error dynamics contained within the nonlinear environment. The performance of the proposed guidance law is demonstrated in a comparative simulation study that also involves a well-known trajectory shaping guidance law. Straightforward to implement with no need for time to go, the technique may be utilized in various planar scenarios involving missiles or unmanned aerial vehicles.

Biased proportional navigation guidance for impact angle control with extension to three-dimensional engagements /
Erer, Koray Savaş; Özgören, Mustafa Kemal; Merttopçuoğlu, Osman; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2015)
This work shows that the impact angle can be controlled by means of bias addition to pure proportional navigation guidance commands. After obtaining the closed-form solution of the nonlinear differential equations governing the engagement kinematics between a pursuer and a stationary target, it is shown that the proposed strategy corresponds to the optimal solution in the linear domain. Three alternative guidance laws that do not require the time to go are proposed. The first law constitutes a two-phased ap...
Nonlinear system identification and nonlinear experimental modal analysis by using response controlled stepped sine testing
Karaağaçlı, Taylan; Özgüven, Hasan Nevzat; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2020-12-24)
In this work, two novel nonlinear system identification methods are proposed in both the modal and spatial domains, respectively, based on response-controlled stepped-sine testing (RCT) where the displacement amplitude of the excitation point is kept constant throughout the frequency sweep. The proposed nonlinear modal identification method, which is also a nonlinear experimental modal analysis technique, applies to systems with several nonlinearities at different (and even unknown) locations (e.g. joint no...
Feedback motion planning with stochastic model predictive control
Deveci, Tuvana Deniz; Ankaralı, Mustafa Mert; Saranlı, Afşar; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2022-5)
In real-world applications of motion planning and navigation, it is crucial to have a robust and accurate control policy. To achieve robustness and accuracy, the selected policy should handle the uncertainty in the process, which may arise from the surrounding environment or the process itself. However, most methods ignore the effects of uncertainty and cause inadmissible results for several applications. This thesis brings a solution to the addressed problem by proposing a trajectory-free motion control me...
Sliding mode control for non-linear systems with adaptive sliding surfaces
Durmaz, Burak; Özgören, Mustafa Kemal; SALAMCİ, METİN UYMAZ (2012-02-01)
This study covers the sliding mode control design with adaptive sliding surfaces for a class of affine non-linear systems, which can be described by (x) over dot = A(x)x + B(x)u + f(x) + d(x, t). The main streamline of the study is the sliding surface design for such systems. The sliding surfaces are designed to be moving with varying slopes and offsets. The varying sliding surface parameters are determined by solving the state-dependent Riccati equations online during the control process. Thus, the sliding...
Random Matrix Based Extended Target Tracking with Orientation: A New Model and Inference
Tuncer, Barkın; Özkan, Emre (2021-02-01)
In this study, we propose a novel extended target tracking algorithm which is capable of representing the extent of dynamic objects as an ellipsoid with a time-varying orientation angle. A diagonal positive semi-definite matrix is defined to model objects' extent within the random matrix framework where the diagonal elements have inverse-Gamma priors. The resulting measurement equation is non-linear in the state variables, and it is not possible to find a closed-form analytical expression for the true poste...
