Abstract:Protecting an asset against threats is a challenging problem in an era of continuously evolving intelligent attacks. This requires cooperation between the asset and the defender to share information and jointly maneuver. To address this problem, this work proposes a cooperative guidance and control strategy for active asset protection against a maneuvering threat. This work develops a joint maneuver strategy where both the defender and the asset coordinate their time-varying speeds and courses to neutralize/capture the attacker. The control strategy is formulated around three coupled geometric and temporal objectives. The first objective is to set the line-of-sight rate between the asset and the attacker to zero, putting the attacker on a collision course and reducing their maneuvering. The second objective is to maintain the defender on the line-of-sight between the asset and the attacker. This ensures that the attacker faces the defender first before reaching the vicinity of the asset. Lastly, the defender is also guided to pursue the attacker based on the time-to-go estimates between the defender and the attacker. While keeping these objectives in mind, the control actions for the asset and the defender are jointly designed, fostering cooperation between the two. The stability of the proposed strategy is established using a Lyapunov-based approach. Numerical simulations performed show the effectiveness of the proposed cooperative strategy in ensuring the successful capture of a maneuvering threat.
