We analyse the performance of the additive observable proportional navigation guidance system, which is well-suited for low-cost homing missiles with bearings-only measurements. Closed-form solutions are derived for both manoeuvring and non-manoeuvring targets. Guidelines on how to select the navigation constants of the control law are presented. We show that the additive observable proportional navigation guidance system can cover a larger capture area than can a conventional proportional navigation system.
