Entry guidance plays an important role in generating the steering command to guide the vehicle from its initial condition to reach the destination safely and accurately. In general, traditional reentry guidance divides into two parts. The first part is the generation of a feasible reference trajectory. The second part is the tracking of this reference trajectory. This chapter focuses on generating a feasible steady glide reference trajectory, especially for high lift-to-drag ratio reentry vehicle, using numerical optimal method. Previous researches in reentry trajectory optimization are summarized as follows.
