Time-Optimal Guidance for Intercepting Moving Targets with Impact-Angle Constraints
Yuan Zheng, Zheng Chen
The minimum-time path for intercepting a moving target with a prescribed impact angle is studied in the paper. The candidate paths from Pontryagin's maximum principle are analyzed,…
Time-Optimal Guidance to Intercept Moving Targets by Dubins Vehicles
Yuan Zheng, Xueming Shao, Zheng Chen +1
This paper is concerned with a Minimum-Time Intercept Problem (MTIP), for which a Dubins vehicle is guided from a position with a prescribed initial orientation angle to intercept…
Optimality conditions applied to free-time multi-burn optimal orbital transfers
Zheng Chen
While the Pontryagin Maximum Principle can be used to calculate candidate extremals for optimal orbital transfer problems, these candidates cannot be guaranteed to be at least loca…
Controllability of Keplerian Motion with Low-Thrust Control Systems
Zheng Chen, Yacine Chitour
In this paper, we present the controllability properties of Keplerian motion controlled by low-thrust control systems. The low-thrust control system, compared with high or even imp…
