Research on Control Method for Lateral Thrust Based on Interceptor in Aerosphere

A method to control the lateral thrust is presented for combined control interceptor in aerosphere. The control command of the interceptor is divided into two commands: command of aerodynamic force and command of lateral thrust. A lateral thrust subsystem is constituted, lateral thrust from the pulse motor is presented, and detailed method to control the lateral thrust is designed. This method is useful to control the interceptor and is convenient for practical project. The simulation results show that this method tracks control command efficiently and accurately, economizes the quantity of pulse motors, and has satisfactory control precision, which shows the availability and advantage
