ADAPTIVE MISSILES GUIDANCE USING GPS

ABSTRACT

The name adaptive means; we can direct any missile using GPS in any vital conditions. GPS

guided missiles have high exceptional navigational and surveying abilities. After GPS being

launched, the warheads could be delivered to any part of the globe using the border of the

onboard computer in the missile with the help of GPS satellite system. GPS allows accurate

targeting of various military weapons including ICBMs, cruise missiles, and precision guided

weapons. Weaponry projectiles with embedded GPS receivers able to endure accelerations of

12,000 G have been developed for use in 155mm. A range of techniques, most particularly

narrow correlation spacing, has been developed to mitigate multipath errors. The multipath

effects are much less severe in moving vehicles. Which means, when the GPS aerial is moving,

the false solutions using reflected signals rapidly fail to cover and only the direct signals result in

steady solutions.
