Abstract

Many theorical studies have been conducted about decoupling and linearization of nonlinear systems. This approach is a means to synthesize the control laws of single-input single-output systems. It is used here for the piloting of nonrolling missiles, of which transverse acceleration is to be controlled. In this paper, it is proved that for this kind of problem, it is possible to associate such a method to simplifications of the model on the one hand and separation of the system into multiple time scale cascade subsystems on the other. Thus, the dimension of the unobservable part can be minimized and the control law is simpler.
