Abstract
To address the complex maneuvering characteristics of hypersonic targets in adjacent space, this paper proposes an LSTM trajectory estimation method combined with the attention mechanism and optimizes the model from the information-theoretic perspective. The method captures the target dynamics by using the temporal processing capability of LSTM, and at the same time improves the efficiency of information utilization through the attention mechanism to achieve accurate prediction. First, a target dynamics model is constructed to clarify the motion behavior parameters. Subsequently, an LSTM model incorporating the attention mechanism is designed, which enables the model to automatically focus on key information fragments in the historical trajectory. In model training, information redundancy is reduced, and information validity is improved through feature selection and data preprocessing. Eventually, the model achieves accurate prediction of hypersonic target trajectories with limited computational resources. The experimental results show that the method performs well in complex dynamic environments with improved prediction accuracy and robustness, reflecting the potential of information theory principles in optimizing the trajectory prediction model.
