Abstract The design of optimal guidance law for intercepting a near-space hypersonic maneuvering target with bounded inputs is considered. Firstly, a maneuvering model for near-space hypersonic aircraft is given. Then, the aircraft acceleration prediction can be obtained using this model with two neural networks. By using the target acceleration prediction, which is taken into account when calculating the Zero Effort Miss (ZEM), an optimal sliding-mode guidance law is proposed to fulfill the guidance task. An adaptive sliding-mode switch term is designed to deal with actuator saturation and prediction errors. Finally, numerical simulations show that the proposed guidance law can reduce the energy consumption and the terminal acceleration command of the interceptor effectively.
