Simulation of Shooting at a Target (Simulation of a Relative Coordinate System)
Any errors made in any of the position-location computations,
including those needed to compute the correct environmental
parameters, can, and will dilute the accuracy of the result.
Select rectangular (LTP) coordinate system origin at shooter.
Define position location of target & shooter
- Both with target plane oriented perpendicular to LOS
Develop an aiming model with random inputs.
Integrate bullet trajectory in time from T until it pierces the plane of the target (need air temperature, density, speed of sound, wind, etc.).
- Will have to access geodetic system for each of these.
- Will need an iterative scheme to get the impact point.
Compute radial miss at target plane impact.
