In this paper, a modified proportional navigation (PN) with weighted combination of linear acceleration and line-of-sight (LOS) acceleration feedback is suggested. For this purpose, a comprehensive miss distance analysis is carried out for PN with linear acceletation feedback and PN with LOS acceleration feedback using a fifth-order binomial guidance and control system. The miss distance (MD) due to initial heading error, target acceleration, and seeker noise is separately analysed. As a special case, a modified PN with acceleration feedback using variable gains is suggested based on MD analysis for infra red seekers. The comparison of PN strategies is carried out using an equivalent effective navigation ratio, defined by using LOS rate profile solution. In addition, the first-order optimal guidance law is converted into PN with PD block with variable gains.
