Key Techniques of Terminal Correction Mortar Projectiles

The operational principle, the impulse force and terminal guidance laws of terminal correction mortar projectiles（TCMP） are researched in this paper, by using the TCMP simulation program, key techniques such as the miss distance influenced by the acting point of impulse force, the impulse force value, the correction threshold, and the number of impulse rockets are researched in this paper. And the dual pulse control scheme is also studied. Simulation results indicate that the best acting point is near the center of gravity, sufficient correction resources are needed, the miss distance is insentive to the correction threshold, increasing the number of impulse rockets properly is beneficial to increase the hit precision, the velocity pursuit guidance law has less miss distance, the change of the attack angle is milder and the transient time becomes less in the dual impulse control scheme. These conclusions are important for choosing parameters and impulse correction schemes designed for TCMP.
