Risk-Aware Input-Constrained Safe Intercept Guidance Against Multiple Moving Defenders
Praveen Kumar Ranjan, Abhinav Sinha, Yongcan Cao +2
This paper develops a risk-aware guidance law for an attacker to intercept a stationary target in the presence of multiple moving defenders while respecting the control input limit…
One-vs-one Threat-Aware Weaponeering with Basic Engagement Zones
Alexander Von Moll, Dejan Milutinović, Isaac Weintraub +1
In this paper we address the problem of 'weaponeering', i.e., placing the weapon engagement zone (WEZ) of a vehicle on a moving target, while simultaneously avoiding the target's W…
Engagement Zones for a Turn Constrained Pursuer
Thomas Chapman, Isaac E. Weintraub, Alexander Von Moll +1
This work derives two basic engagement zone models, describing regions of potential risk or capture for a mobile vehicle by a pursuer. The pursuer is modeled as having turn-constra…
Min-Time Escape of a Dubins Car from a Polygon
Isaac E. Weintraub, Alexander Von Moll, David Casbeer +3
A turn constrained vehicle is initially located inside a polygon region and desires to escape in minimum time. First, the method of characteristics is used to describe the time-opt…
Complete Solution of the Lady in the Lake Scenario
Alexander Von Moll, Meir Pachter
In the Lady in the Lake scenario, a mobile agent, L, is pitted against an agent, M, who is constrained to move along the perimeter of a circle. L is assumed to begin inside the cir…
Surveillance of a Faster Fixed-Course Target
Isaac E. Weintraub, Alexander Von Moll, Eloy Garcia +2
The maximum surveillance of a target which is holding course is considered, wherein an observer vehicle aims to maximize the time that a faster target remains within a fixed-range…
Multiple Pursuer Multiple Evader Differential Games
Eloy Garcia, David W. Casbeer, Alexander Von Moll +1
In this paper an N-pursuer vs. M-evader team conflict is studied. The differential game of border defense is addressed and we focus on the game of degree in the region of the state…
