Abstract

The use of global positioning system (GPS) for precision guidance of weapons is being questioned due to its vulnerability of jamming and spoofing for non-military code users. In this paper a novel approach is proposed for guidance of weapons where use of GPS or other civilian Satellite-based navigation system is threatened. The proposed approach is modelled and simulated using Simulink for realistic trajectories and scenario. The results of simulation are validated with the actual GPS data.
