Abstract

Ballistic missile is becoming secret weapon of modern warfare because of its long distance attacks, low radar cross section, high speed and high accuracy with flexibility with nuclear warheads. In order to reduce its penetration, impact factor of ballistic missile characteristics of targets detected should be researched. Piecewise trajectory of ballistic missile is firstly described in this paper based on parts of its operational model. Then the formulas to calculate detection probability of sensor are provided and the influence of different parameters of speed, angle on changes of RCS characteristics is analyzed. Finally, the interrelation between detection probability of single sensor and reentry-angle and the interrelation between detection probability of multiple sensors and the numbers of sensors are modeled. Through the analysis, the results of the model can provide valid simulation evidence for defense of ballistic missile.
