could
convergence to the sliding surface rapidly, then
reach steady state.
In order to further illustrate the effectiveness and
the advance of the guidance law, we compared it
wih the guidance law proposed in paper (Dan, 2013).
Table 2 shows the intercept time under different
target maneuvers.
Moreover, in order to evaluate the convergence
rate of the proposed method, the comparison of
interception time between our method and the
guidance law proposed in (Dan, 2013) are presented.
The comparison results are given in the Table 2, in
which 4 target acceleration values are applied.

We can see that the guidance law proposed in
this paper has shorter intercept time and has better
convergence performance.
6 CONCLUSIONS
In this paper, a finite time convergent guidance law
for head pursuit is proposed, in which the terminal
sliding mode control theory is used. By considering
the dynamics characteristics of target and interceptor,
an adaptive law is theoretically designed based on
the interference factors of target maneuvering and
model errors. The results of numerical simulation
show that the guidance law can be implemented on
the head pursuit intercept of high-speed targets and
achieve successful interception in different attack
angles and target maneuvering, while having smaller
intercept error compared with other methods. The
proposed method has lower requirement on the way
of maneuvering, which show a potential application
in real interception of high-speed vehicle. Moreover,
the sliding variable can also convergence to sliding
surface more quickly with strong robustness.
