Definitions
- Rotating missile emitting light pulses Rotating missile emitting light pulses.
- the present invention relates to a rotating missile provided with a transmitter of light pulses, addressed to a receiver arranged at a fixed station (the firing station of said missile) and capable of being used for locating and guiding said missile, as is example described in document US-4,710,028 (FR-2,583,523).
- a transmitter can comprise a bulky flashlight, consuming a large amount of energy, or, preferably, a laser source.
- the laser energy emitted must be significant in order to ensure a long-range optical link, resistant to possible interference.
- the missile provided with a transmitter of light pulses addressed to a receiver arranged at a fixed station, said missile moving away from said receiver while being driven in a rotational movement around its axis. longitudinal, is remarkable in that it comprises means for interrupting said light pulses when said rotational movement of said missile ceases.
- Said means for interrupting light pulses can act in different ways. For example, they can mask said transmitter. However, preferably, they stop the operation of said transmitter, either by direct action on it, or by indirect action. In the latter case, when said transmitter is controlled by an electronic control device, said interruption means can inhibit either the latter or the control link between said electronic control device and said transmitter.
- said missile comprises a roll detector emitting roll pulses, each of which corresponds to a precise angular position of said missile around its longitudinal axis
- said roll detector controls said means for interrupting the light pulses.
- said interrupting means interrupt said light pulses with delay relative to the detection of the first missing roll pulse. For example, this interruption occurs after a duration corresponding to at least two periods of the roll pulses, said duration being counted from the last roll pulse detected by said detector.
- said means for interrupting said light pulses comprise a systematic counter continuously counting at a frequency greater than the frequency of said roll pulses, said systematic counter being reset to zero and reinitialized by each roll pulse that it receives, whereas, in the absence of a roll pulse, said systematic counter transmits a signal after counting up to a predetermined number, from the last roll pulse received.
- FIG. 1 schematically illustrates the guidance of a missile rotating from a stationary firing station.
- FIG. 2 schematically shows a roll detector for the missile of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 3 is a diagram showing diagrammatically, as a function of time t, the series of roll pulses generated by the detector of FIG. 2.
- FIGS. 4 to 6 are block diagrams respectively illustrating three alternative embodiments of the device d interruption of the light pulses emitted by the missile, in accordance with the present invention.
- a firing station 1 is shown diagrammatically, capable of guiding a missile 2 with respect to a reference axis XX (line of sight).
- the missile 2 moves away from the firing station 1 while being animated by a rotational movement around its longitudinal axis LL.
- This rotational movement has a speed Vr of for example 5 to 10 revolutions per second and is symbolized by the arrow 3.
- the missile 2 carries a laser transmitter 4, for example with laser diode or with VCSEL laser 4A (see FIGS. 4 to 6 ), capable of emitting laser pulses 5 towards the shooting station 1.
- the latter includes a receiver 6 for receiving said laser pulses 5.
- a gyroscopic system 7 defining a fixed direction VV.
- a light source 8 and a corresponding receiver 9.
- an envelope 10 linked to the missile 2 in its rotation around the axis LL.
- This envelope 10 carries several point reflective surfaces 1 1, capable of receiving the incident light beam 12 emitted by the source 8 and of addressing the reflected beam 13 corresponding on the receiver 9.
- the reflecting surfaces 1 1 are regularly distributed over the envelope 10, for example every 1 20 ° (as shown) or every 45 °.
- the receiver 9 receives a light pulse, which it transforms into an electrical roll pulse 14 and, at each turn of the missile 2 around its longitudinal axis LL , are generated as many electrical roll pulses 14 that the envelope 10 has reflecting surfaces 1 1.
- the receiver 9 is connected to a counter 1 5, while the laser transmitter 4 is controlled by the electronic device 16, to which it is connected by a link 17.
- the counter 15 systematically counts at a frequency higher than the frequency 1 / T of the roll pulses 14 and it is reset and reset by each of said roll pulses 14 which it receives from the receiver 9.
- the counter 15 is permanently reset to zero and reinitialized by the successive roll pulses 14.
- the roll pulses 14 disappear and the counter 1 5 counts from the last roll pulse 14d received - without being reset to zero or reset by any pulse 14 - up to a predetermined number corresponding to a duration D greater than the time T separating the last pulse 14d received from the first, referenced 14M1, of the missing pulses 14, referenced 14M in FIG. 3.
- the duration D is preferably greater than 2T.
