This paper derives a new non-linear guidance law aimed at interception of highly manoeuvring targets. The guidance law is developed based on the theory of control Lyapunov functions (CLFs), a methodology for universal stabilization of non-linear systems which is also inverse optimal with respect to some performance measure. The three-dimensional guidance dynamics are formulated in a fixed-line-of-sight coordinate system, yielding matching between the target and missile accelerations. Closed-form expressions for the CLF guidance commands are given. Simulation shows that the new guidance scheme significantly outperforms augmented proportional navigation in short-range engagements.
