Studies on Multi-Constraints Cooperative Guidance Method Based on Distributed MPC for Multi-Missiles

Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

1) It is desirable to extend the introduction part and add more literature review related to the topic in other chapters, too.

2) Consider checking Fig. 4 - distributed MPC is mentioned as (a) instead of (c). In Fig. 19 and Fig. 20 please try to increase the size and quality to make it more readable.

3) Please improve in text and grammar quality so it is more convenient for a reader.

4) Please improve the conclusion part to make it more clear for the reader. For example what was the achieved accuracy of the simulation after the application of the proposed MPC approach, etc.

Comments ：It is desirable to extend the introduction part and add more literature review related to the topic in other chapters, too.

Reply： Thank you very much for your suggestions. There is indeed a lack of overview of some contents. We have added a research overview of MPC.

Comments ：Consider checking Fig. 4 - distributed MPC is mentioned as (a) instead of (c). In Fig. 19 and Fig. 20 please try to increase the size and quality to make it more readable.

Reply： Thank you very much for reminding us that there are some errors in Figure C. We redrawn it. The sizes of figures 19 and 20 can be adjusted.

 

Comments ：Please improve in text and grammar quality so it is more convenient for a reader.

Reply：Thank you very much for your suggestions. We have carefully proofread the grammar of the full text and modified some irregularities.

Comments ：Please improve the conclusion part to make it more clear for the reader. For example what was the achieved accuracy of the simulation after the application of the proposed MPC approach, etc.

Reply：Thank you very much for your valuable comments. We have revised the conclusion.

Reviewer 2 Report

The topic Research on multi-constraints cooperative guidance method based on distributed MPC for multi-missiles is potentially interesting, however, there are some issues that should be addressed by the authors:

The Introduction" sections can be made much more impressive by highlighting your contributions. The contribution of the study should be explained simply and clearly.

The authors should further enlarge the Introduction with current work about different  control and optimization algorithms to improve the research background, for example, Optimal design of low computational burden model predictive control based on SSDA towards autonomous vehicle under vision dynamics; Optimal design of nonlinear model predictive controller based on new modified multitracker optimization algorithm; Improving the grid frequency by optimal design of model predictive control with energy storage devices‏.

Conclusion section should be rearranged. According to the topic of the paper, the authors may propose some interesting problems as future work in the conclusion.

This study may be proposed for publication if it is addressed in the specified problems.
