Optimal Configuration of Tetrahedral Spacecraft Formations
The problem of determining minimum-fuel maneuver sequences for a four-spacecraft formation is considered. The objective of this paper is to find fuel-optimal spacecraft trajectories that transfer four spacecraft from an initial parking orbit to a desired terminal reference orbit while satisfying a set of constraints on the formation at the terminal time. Trajectories involving both one and two ...

The problem of determining minimum-fuel maneuver sequences for a four-spacecraft formation is considered. The objective of this paper is to determine fuel-optimal configuration trajectories that transfer a four spacecraft formation from an initial parking orbit to a desired terminal reference orbit while satisfying particular formation constraints. In this paper, the configuration problem is so...
متن کاملOptimal Continuous/Impulsive Control for Lorentz-Augmented Spacecraft Formations
a = semimajor axis b = magnetic field vector e = eccentricity e = orbital element vector e · = matrix exponential f = true anomaly h = angular momentum magnitude i = inclination J = cost Jn = nth zonal harmonic coefficient M = mean anomaly m = mass m = magnetic dipole vector N − 1 = number of thrusts n = mean motion p = semilatus rectum q = electrical charge r = orbit radius magnitude r = posit...
متن کاملMulti-objective Online Initialization of Spacecraft Formations
This paper extends a previously developed method for finding spacecraft initial conditions (ICs) that minimize the drift resulting from J2 disturbances while also minimizing the fuel required to attain those ICs. It generalizes the single spacecraft optimization to a formation-wide optimization valid for an arbitrary number of vehicles. Additionally, the desired locations of the spacecraft, sep...
متن کاملRobust Load-sharing Control of Spacecraft Formations
This paper focuses on the design of autonomous and collaborative control strategies to govern the relative distances among multiple spacecraft in formation with no ground intervention. A coordinate load-sharing control structure for formation flying and a methodology to control their dynamic models with slow t ime-varymg and uncertain parameters are the main objectives of this work. The method ...
