The problem of optimal guidance of a low-altitude skid-to-turn vehicle is considered. In particular, the skid-to-turn vehicle is both guided and controlled using a recently developed computational optimal guidance and control method that employs $hp$ Gaussian quadrature collocation. First, this recently developed method is used to re-solve the optimal control problem on a shrinking horizon at constant guidance cycles. The performance of this computational guidance and control method is then analyzed and compared against a classical LQ follower. It is found that, although the computational efficiencies of both methods are comparable, the computational method for optimal guidance and control is significantly more accurate than that of the LQ follower. The results of this study show that the recently developed computational method for optimal guidance and control has the potential to improve performance over traditional methods when solving an optimal control problem in real time.

考虑了低空防滑转弯车辆的最佳引导问题。特别地，使用最近开发的计算最优制导和控制方法来引导和控制打滑车辆。$Hp$高斯正交配置。首先，这种新近开发的方法用于在恒定的制导周期内解决不断缩小的最优控制问题。然后，对这种计算指导和控制方法的性能进行了分析，并与经典的LQ从动件进行了比较。可以发现，尽管两种方法的计算效率是可比的，但用于最佳制导和控制的计算方法比LQ跟随器的计算方法准确得多。这项研究的结果表明，当实时解决最佳控制问题时，最近开发的用于最佳制导和控制的计算方法有可能比传统方法提高性能。
