The alleged invention relates to navigation, and more particularly to meters altitude, is aimed at solving stealth missile of class "air-surface" and can be used for designing control systems of missiles and radio altimeters.

Known radio way of measuring the relative flight altitude H of the aircraft (LA) [1], pages 10-17, namely, that on the LA set the radio altimeter (RV), measured time t of passage of radio waves from the aircraft to the ground and back calculate the altitudewhere C is the speed of light. As RV used RV with frequency [2] or pulse [3] modulation of the emitted signal.

The disadvantage of this method of measuring the altitude of LA is a large range of dORTRdetection LA means electronic reconnaissance on radiation PB, which can be defined [4], page 330, as

where PAnd- average radiated power;

λ - wavelength PB;

GPB, n is the gain and level of the lateral radiation of the transmitting antenna PB, respectively;

GPTP, RCR- gain antenna and the minimum received power of the receiver station signals intelligence (RTR), respectively.

If, for example, [2] PAnd =0.1 W, λ =0,07 m, GRV=20, n=0,01, a GRTR=200, PCR=10-12W, DORTR=35,4 km

This value of DORTRgreatly exceeds the range of DRadardetection of missile radar station (radar), defined according to [5], page 14, as

where RRadarthat λ , G, PDIRLSrespectively radiated power, wavelength, the antenna gain and the minimum received power receiver radar;

S - scattering cross-section of the rocket.

If, for example, RRadar=25000 W λ =0.25 m, G=1000, S=0.01 m2and RDIRLS=10-12W, DRadar=9.4 km, i.e. the detection range missile radar is significantly less than the detection range missiles station RTR signals emitted from the RV.

The purpose of the proposed invention is to reduce the detection range missiles station RTR on radiation RV.

This objective is achieved in that before take-off aircraft-carrier missile of class “air-surface”, equipped with the navigation equipment of the consumer (EmOC), set in the point whose coordinates are known with high accuracy, take a NAP aircraft navigation radio satellite navigation systems (SNS) GLONASS or GPS, or both, calculate the coordinates of the voltage plane, knowing true to the ordinate, calculate and memorize differential corrections (DOC) Δ x, Δ, Δ N and introduce them to the NRA missiles before launch, in-flight NAP missiles determine with regard to PD planned coordinates and the absolute height of Handenter the planned coordinates of the missile, its flight, a digital terrain map (CSM), define a height Htothe terrain over which flies at the moment the missile, and calculate the relative flight altitude Habout=Nand-Nto.

The technical result of the implementation of the proposed method is to obtain sufficiently accurate information about the relative flight altitude without emitting radio signals during flight at low and high altitudes, and when the radiation of low power when flying at extremely low altitudes, which increases the stealth and combat effectiveness of the missile of class “air-surface”, the control system which implements the proposed method for obtaining information about the relative flight altitude.

As shown in [6], page 367, the required radiated power PAnddefining dORTRproportional to the square of the maximum height Hmax. Therefore, to reduce the dORTRit is proposed to obtain information about small and large relative heights of the rocket flight using (crns), operating in differential mode [8], the Tr. 162 to 165, upon receipt and entry of the DP on the proposed method, and SMC, and the smallest height Hminflight measured with PB midget heights (RSPS)with low radiant power PAnd. In this case, RAndmay be reduced To time

The sequence of operations of the proposed method is illustrated in the functional diagram in the drawing, which shows:

1 - instrument aircraft carrier missiles (ASNR), which includes:

2 - navigation equipment consumer EmOC;

3 - transmitter differential corrections (TTP);

4 - apparatus missiles (AR), which includes:

5 - navigation equipment consumer (NAB-P);

6 - digital maps (CSM);

7 - the transmitter relative height (WWII);

8 - radio ultra-low heights (RSMV).

Communication between blocks is shown in the drawing and are, for example, the serial code and the code RS-232C interface.

The inventive method is characterized by the following sequence of actions:

1 - the plane before takeoff include NAP-2;

2 - establish the aircraft in a location whose coordinates are known with high precision;

3 - receive navigation signals of at least four navigation satellites and determine a pseudorange;

4 - calculate what the pseudorange planned coordinates of the aircraft;

5 - knowing the true coordinates of the plane, compute the DP on the planned coordinates Δ x, Δ and the height Δ N and memorize them;

6 - enter the DP before launch at NAB-P 5;

7 - in the process of rocket flight using NAB-R 5 is determined taking into account DP absolute flight altitude Handand the planned coordinates xandand Iandgiving CKM;

8 - determine the altitude Htoover which flies at the moment the rocket, by entering information about the planned coordinates output voltage-R 5 in CCM;

9 - calculate the relative height according to the formula

Habout=Nand-Nto

and give information about it to the consumers;

10 - include RSMV 8 when H0equal to the estimated height of the flight safety;

11 - give consumers information about the height of RSMV 8.

Additional measurement error of height, resulting in the implementation of this method, minor and its mean value can be definitely as

where σSMC- the standard error of the SMC;

σIn- error “age”.

As shown in [7], pages 47-48,

where σto- error primary mapping, σto=(2-3) m;

σDP- accuracy sample rate field.

According to the schedule, given Nomo in [7] on page 48, for moderate terrain σDP<1.5 m for sampling Δ <250 m

Then

In [8], page 165, it is shown that σInFO+t· V+b· L,

where σFO=2.28 m;

t is the time between time tDPcalculate the PD and its use;

L - distance between points get DP and its use;

V and b are coefficients, time-based and range, respectively,

V=1,32· 10-3m/s, b=438· 10-5m/km

We can assume that L=LWith+LAnd,

where LWith- the range of the joint flight of aircraft and missiles;

LAnd- range Autonomous flight of a rocket.

If, for example, LWith=350 km, LAnd=150 km, and the average flight speed of the aircraft and rockets VWith=300 m/s, then

t=500· 103/300=1666 s and σB=2,28+1,32· 10-3·1666+438· 10-5·500=6,66 m

Thus, for the considered case

Such a small error can reduce the maximum measured height of the RV to the value

Hmin=Nbp=Nb+3σD,

where Nbp- estimated height of a safe flight;

Hballowable height of a safe flight.

If Hb=20 m, Hmin=20+22,5=42,5 m

The resulting value of Hminconsiderably is about less than the maximum height H max=2000 m, measured RVA [2].

Such a low altitude allowstime to reduce the radiated power andtime to reduce the detection range of radiation PB, i.e. dORTR=0,75 km

Instrument realization of the proposed method will not lead to a significant increase in mass and volume of the onboard devices. The main device that increases the weight of the devices necessary for the implementation of this method is NAP-R. But, as shown in [9], page 6, OAD installed on the newly designed and upgraded aircraft and missiles. As for the mass of the SMC, it is insignificant. As shown in [7], page 107, discretes planned coordinates SMC, it is advisable to select equal to 125 m, and for recording one field value of the relief is rather 8 bits. If the area of the launch aircraft carrier is limited by the size of 200x200 km, the SMC (VSMC=8• 8• 200• 8• 200=2.56 MB).

This memory provides one ROM type LH28F032 SUTD [11]with the amount of memory is 4 MB.

Currently, user navigation equipment SRNS GLONASS and GPS is widely used for determining the location of a wide class of objects for military and civilian purposes, as with the use of modern integrated circuits is achieved small overall size is, weight and low cost OAD.

Therefore, the proposed method meets the requirement of the terms "Industrial applicability" (P "Rules SP-2").

Thus, the proposed method of measuring the relative height of the missiles flight navigation spacecraft radio signals of satellite radio navigation systems and digital map is new and gives a positive effect, which consists in reducing the detection range of radiation PB means RTR.
