A new integrated guidance and control (IGC) law is investigated for a homing missile with an impact angle against a ground target.\nFirstly, a control-oriented model with impact angle error of the IGC system in the pitch plane is formulated by linear coordinate\ntransformation according to the motion kinematics and missile dynamics model. Secondly, an IGC law is proposed to satisfy the\nimpact angle constraint and to improve the rapidity of the guidance and control system by combining the sliding mode control\nmethod and nonlinear extended disturbance observer technique. Thirdly, stability of the closed-loop guidance and control\nsystem is proven based on the Lyapunov stability theory, and the relationship between the accuracy of the impact angle and the\nestimate errors of nonlinear disturbances is derived from stability of the sliding mode. Finally, simulation results confirm that\nthe proposed IGC law can improve the performance of the missile guidance and control system against a ground target.
