Abstract

In this paper it is shown that variational techniques can be applied to solve differential games. Conditions for capture and for optimality are derived for a class of optimal pursuit-evasion problems. Results are used to demonstrate that the well-known proportional navigation law is actually an optimal intercept strategy.
