Aiming at the traditional integrated fuse information fusion method that cannot simultaneously obtain high‐precision burst control parameters such as burst delay time, azimuth angle, and detection angle, the infrared imaging detector and range finder information fusion method based on particle filtering with BAS algorithm is proposed. Under the centralized information fusion structure that can obtain higher accuracy, first, use a faster linear interpolation method to realize the time alignment of the two asynchronous sensors. Second, for the strong non‐linear observation model in the missile target rendezvous model, use a particle filter framework that is not affected by the nonlinearity of the system function and non‐gaussian noise. Finally, Utilizing the single search BAS algorithm with low computational complexity to solve the problem of particle degradation in particle filtering and improve the accuracy of burst control. The experiment shows that in a typical simulation environment, the optimized information fusion method improves the burst delay time accuracy by 61.82%, azimuth accuracy by 66.28%, detection angle accuracy by 36.15%, and simulation time is shorter compared to traditional methods. In order to improve the burst control accuracy of the infrared imaging detector and range finder integrated fuse, higher precision detonation control parameters are needed. Aiming at the traditional integrated fuse information fusion method that cannot simultaneously obtain high‐precision burst control parameters, the guidance integrated fuze information fusion method based on particle filtering with BAS algorithm is proposed.
