Low-Thrust Fuel-Optimal Rendezvous Mission to Near Earth Asteroids

Article Preview

Abstract:

Indirect method combined with homotopy approach is used to solve low-thrust fuel-optimal problem. To start the homotopy progress, pseudospectral method is used to solve energy-optimal problem to generate the initial guess. The proposed approach is applied to Earth to a near earth asteroid rendezvous mission. The performance of such approach is demonstrated through simulation.
