Optimal Peer-to-Peer Maneuvers for Refueling Satellites in Circular Constellations

Abstract:

In this paper we visit the problem of peer-to-peer (P2P) refueling of a satellite constellation in orbit. Taking the telemetering time window constraint into consideration, a Two-level Planning Model is established. The up-level is mission assignment, which assigns fuel-deficient satellites to fuel-sufficient satellites in optimal pairs. The low-level is time distribution, which finds the time allotted for each rendezvous segment and associated minimum total cost. An example is given at the end of the paper. The solution shows that the methodology proposed in this paper can efficiently address the problem of P2P refueling satellites in circular constellation.
