In this paper, time-scale separation, feedback linearization (FL), and extended state observer (ESO) based new design for an acceleration tracking pitch autopilot of a tail controlled, skid-to-turn tactical missile is presented. The pitch plane dynamics has been split into pitch rate dynamics as fast, and the acceleration dynamics as a slow subsystem by exploiting the naturally existing time-scale separation between them. FL-based controllers are then designed for the subsystems separately. To achieve robustness in the presence of uncertainties and disturbances, an ESO is designed for each of the subsystem separately. The ESOs estimate the effect of uncertainties in the respective subsystem and the estimate is used to robustify the feedback linearizing controller designed for the respective nominal subsystem. The design neither requires accurate plant model nor any information about the uncertainty. Closed-loop stability for the overall system is established. The effectiveness of the design in meeting specified tracking performance in the presence of significant uncertainties, unmodeled dynamics, measurement noise, control input, and rate saturation, and in varying missile velocity and altitude scenario is illustrated by simulation. Furthermore, to analyze the performance for different initial conditions and parameter perturbations, Monte Carlo simulation study is carried out and the results are presented. Finally, performance comparison of the proposed design with some existing controllers is presented to showcase the efficacy of the proposed design.
