The development of an effective guidance and attitude control architecture for terminal descent and landing represents a crucial issue for the design of reusable vehicles capable of performing a safe atmospheric planetary entry. The sliding mode control represents a nonlinear technique able to generate an effective real-time closed-loop guidance law, even in the presence of challenging contingencies. This work proposes a multiple sliding-surface guidance control law that is able to drive a lifting vehicle toward safe landing conditions, associated with a desired downrange, crossrange, runway heading, and final vertical velocity at touchdown, even starting from challenging initial conditions. The time derivatives of the lift coefficient and the bank angle are used as the control inputs, whereas the sliding surfaces are defined so that these two inputs are involved simultaneously in the lateral and the vertical guidance. The commanded attitude is pursued by the attitude control system, which employs a feedback nonlinear control law that enjoys quasi-global stability properties. Effectiveness and accuracy of the guidance and control strategy at hand are proven numerically by means of a Monte Carlo campaign, in the presence of stochastic wind and large dispersions on the initial conditions.
