Radar deception through phantom track generation

This paper presents a control algorithm to be used by a team of ECAVs (electronic combat air vehicle) to deceive a network of radars through the generation of a phantom track. An important feature of the algorithm is that it translates kinematic constraints on the ECAV dynamic system into constraints on the phantom point. The phantom track between two specified waypoints then evolves without violating any of the system constraints. The evolving phantom track in turn generates the actual controls on the ECAVs so that ECAVs have flyable trajectories.
