Orbit Plan Method for General Rendezvous Problems

Article Preview

Abstract:

The orbit plan method of rendezvous mission was studied in this paper. We are concerned with the general rendezvous problem between two satellites which may be in non-coplanar, eccentric orbits, considering orbit perturbation and rendezvous time limitation. The planning problem was modeled as a nonlinear optimization problem, and the adaptive simulated annealing method was used to get the global solution. The Lambert algorithm was used to compute the transfer orbit, so that the endpoint constraint of rendezvous was eliminated. A shooting technique was used to solve the perturbed lambert problem. The method was validated by simulation results.
