Active Orbital Debris Removal Using Space Robotics
One of the main technical challenge in orbital debris removal (ODR) missions is how to capture a tumbling and drifting space object given several environmental and operational constraints. This paper focuses on the guidance of a robot manipulator in a preand postgrasp phases to capture and stabilize a drifting and tumbling space object with uncertain dynamics. A Kalman filter is used to estimat...
متن کاملNull-steering LMS Dual-Polarised Adaptive Antenna Arrays for GPS
The implementation of a null-steering antenna array using dual polarised patch antennas is considered. Several optimality criterion for adjusting the array weights are discussed. The most effective criteria minimises the output power of the array subject to maintaining a right hand circular polarisation (RHCP) response on the reference antenna. An unconstrained form of this criteria is derived,...
متن کاملShape estimation of space debris using single-range Doppler interferometry
Shape estimation of space debris, or the fragments of satellites and rocket bodies left on the earth’s orbit is an important task in evaluating its danger of a possible collision with operational spacecraft. A method of imaging a space debris whose size is smaller than the range resolution of the radar is proposed. It is called Single Range Doppler Interferometry (SRDI) in contrast to the conve...
متن کاملMultiple Space Debris Collecting Mission - Debris selection and Trajectory optimization
A possible mean to stabilize the LEO debris population is to remove each year 5 heavy debris like spent satellites or launchers stages from that space region. This paper investigates the ΔV requirement for such a Space Debris Collecting mission. The optimization problem is intrinsically hard since it mixes combinatorial optimization to select the debris among a list of candidates and functional...
