Ballistic Fitting Impact Point Prediction Based on Improved Crayfish Optimization Algorithm

To solve the problem of difficulty in predicting the impact point clearly and promptly during projectile flight, this paper proposes an improved ballistic-impact-point prediction method. A certain type of high-spinning tailed projectile is taken as the research object for online real-time landing point prediction research. This study comprehensively utilizes the real-time radar measurement data and the geomagnetic data measured by the bomb-carried geomagnetic sensor. It applies the four-degree-of-freedom ballistic model to predict the landing point. First, the roll angular velocity is calculated based on the geomagnetic data, after which the radar real-time measurement data are segmentally fitted using the improved crayfish algorithm. Then, the fitted parameters are substituted into the four-degree-of-freedom ballistic model. Finally, the C-K method is used to identify the aerodynamic parameters, and the identified aerodynamic parameters are used for fallout prediction. The simulation results show a small deviation between the predicted and actual impact points using the improved ballistic-impact-point prediction method.
