| Summary: | In this paper, a design approach for simultaneous cooperative interception is presented for a scenario where the successful handover cannot be guaranteed by a single interceptor due to the target maneuver and movement information errors at the handover moment. Firstly, the concepts of the reachable interception area and predicted interception area are introduced, a performance index function is constructed, and the probability of a successful handover is described by considering the coverage of the predicted interception area. Taking the probability of successful handover as a constraint, the simultaneous cooperative interception design problem is formulated based on area coverage. Then, an area coverage optimization algorithm is presented to design the spatial distributions of the interceptors. In order to enhance the handover probability, a simultaneous cooperative interception design approach is proposed to obtain the number of interceptors and the corresponding spatial distributions. Finally, simulation experiments are carried out to validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. © 2022 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.
