Formation Keeping Control for Deorbiting an Uncooperative Satellite by Laser Ablation
Shun Isobe, Yasuhiro Yoshimura, Toshiya Hanada +2
This paper proposes the formation keeping control law for deorbiting debris by a laser ablation. Laser ablation is vital technology for contactless active debris removal, where a c…

Adaptive Relative Orbit Control Considering Laser Ablation Uncertainty
Shun Isobe, Yasuhiro Yoshimura, Toshiya Hanada +2
This study proposes a relative orbit control law for laser debris removal missions considering the uncertainties of laser ablation and atmospheric drag. A removal spacecraft irradi…
