This monograph covers one of the divisions of mathematical theory of control which
examines moving objects functionating under conflict and uncertainty conditions. To identify …

The Autonomous Air Combat technique has been a lasting research topic for decades.
However, no complete solutions seem to have appeared because of the highly dynamic and …

The use of a differential game and an optimal control theoretic approach for computing
danger zones for this particular problem is new. The space outside the danger zone is …

The Stanford DragonFly Program (http://airtrafficl. stanford. edu//spl sim/uav/) consists of two
fixed wing (10-foot wingspan) autonomous aircraft, whose onboard architecture, avionics …

An algorithm for obtaining a state-feedback control law for near-optimal aircraft pursuit
evasion in three dimensions is outlined. Key features of the approach are the use of singular …

A coplanar pursuit-evasion game of the kind in the atmosphere between a coasting pursuer
and a maneuvering evader of constant speed is considered. For this game the adjoint …

Combat is formulated as a dynamical encounter between two opponents, each of whom has
offensive capabilities and objectives. With each opponent is associated a target in the event …

Presently, closely spaced parallel approaches (CSPA) of commercial aircraft into airports
are not permitted in Instrument Meteorological Conditions (IMC). Much research is focused …

Helicopters operating in high threat areas have to fly close to the earth surface to minimize
the risk of being detected by the adversaries. Techniques are presented for low altitude …

Dispersal points and points on the barrier are located for a class of pursuit-evasion and
interception problems. These points are determined by constructing cross sections of the …
