Finite Thrust Control for Satellite Formation Flying with State Constraints
This paper considers the problem of rotating a constellation of spacecraft using on/oo thrusters such that the relative distance between the spacecraft is maintained to within a speciied tolerance. The basic idea is to resolve all of the constraints into a sphere around the desired tra-jectory of each spacecraft. As the constellation rotates, the sphere sweeps out a tube that constrains the mot...
متن کاملModel Predictive Control for Formation Flying Spacecraft
Formation flying is an enabling technology for many future space missions. This thesis addresses some of the key dynamics and control issues expected in future missions by pursuing two areas of advancement: extensions of relative linear dynamics models and assessment and mitigation of sensor noise effects on control systems. Relative dynamics models play an important role in finding drift-free ...
متن کاملA Distributed Flight Software Design for Satellite Formation Flying Control
Several NASA and DoD missions are envisioned that will utilize distributed, autonomous clusters of spacecraft. The Air Force Research Laboratory initiated the TechSat 21 mission to demonstrate the key enabling technologies of formation flying and distributed radar. Princeton Satellite Systems developed the Formation Flying Module (FFM) for TechSat 21 to provide autonomous reconfiguration, forma...
متن کاملAttitude Synchronization Control in Satellite Formation Flying in the Presence of States Measurement Errors
This paper presents a novel attitude synchronization framework for tracking control of multiple identical/heterogeneous satellites in formation flying with connected communication graph. The main contribution of the paper is considering sensors' measurement error to derive control gains. Moreover, the proposed strategy need no angular velocity communication. Nevertheless, the tracking synchroni...
متن کاملMission Planning for Formation-Flying Satellite Cluster
The formation-flying satellite cluster is a new paradigm for space-based surveillance and remote sensing. In this paradigm, several small satellites fly in close formation and coordinate their activities so that through sparse-array interferometric and synthetic aperture techniques the cluster can effectively operate as though it were a much larger monolithic satellite. Management of such clust...
