Efficient Input-Constrained Impulsive Optimal Control of Linear Systems with Application to Spacecraft Relative Motion
Ethan Foss, Simone D'Amico
This work presents a novel algorithm for impulsive optimal control of linear time-varying systems with the inclusion of input magnitude constraints. Impulsive optimal control probl…
Long-Duration Station-Keeping Strategy for Cislunar Spacecraft Formations
Ethan Foss, Yuji Takubo, Simone D'Amico
This paper demonstrates a novel guidance and control strategy for cislunar near-rectilinear halo orbit formation-keeping applied to high-fidelity dynamics. Bounded relative motion…
Safe and Optimal N-Spacecraft Swarm Reconfiguration in Non-Keplerian Cislunar Orbits
Yuji Takubo, Walter Manuel, Ethan Foss +1
This paper presents a novel fuel-optimal guidance and control methodology for spacecraft swarm reconfiguration in Restricted Multi-Body Problems (RMBPs) with a guarantee of passive…
Optimal Impulsive Control of Cislunar Relative Motion using Reachable Set Theory
Matthew Hunter, Walter J. Manuel, Simone D'Amico
This work presents the first application of the state-of-the-art Koenig-D'Amico reachable set theory solver to cislunar, chaotic relative motion in the Circular-Restricted Three-Bo…
