Satellite Formation around the Largest Asteroids

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Satellites around large asteroids are preferentially found among those with the most rapid rotation and elongated shape. The taxonomic statistics are similarly skewed; in total, 13 asteroids larger than 100 km are known to have satellites, but none have ...

The Development of high fidelity linearized J2 models for satellite formation flying control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The inclusion of the linearized J2 effect in the Hill equations of relative motion gives greater insight into satellite formation flying dynamics, and the opportunity to investigate alternative feedback control strategies for the station keeping task.

Satellite formation flying for an interferometry mission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The autonomous formation flying of multiple spacecraft to replace a single large satellite will be an enabling technology for many future missions. In this research, the current status of formation flying missions and technologies is determined, and ...

Universal adaptive control of satellite formation flying [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In this paper, a new universal adaptive control scheme for satellite formation flying is developed. The underline idea of our design is to combine the domination design and the monotone adaptive gain.

A FORMATION SCENARIO FOR THE DISK OF SATELLITES: ACCRETION OF SATELLITES DURING MERGERS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT The Disk of Satellites (DoS) observed in the Andromeda galaxy is a thin and extended group of satellites, nearly perpendicular to the disk plane, that share a common direction of rotation about the center of Andromeda. Although a DoS is also observed in the Milky Way galaxy, the prevalance of such structures in more distant ...

Decentralized H∞ Observer-Based Attack-Tolerant Formation Tracking Network Control of Large-Scale LEO Satellites via HJIE-Reinforced Deep Learning Approach

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2023
In this study, an H∞ attack-tolerant decentralized observer-based formation tracking control strategy is designed for the network control system (NCS) of large-scale LEO satellite team under external disturbance and attack signal. First, smoothing

Formation Satellite Reconstruction Strategy Based on NSGA-II Algorithm

open access: yesShanghai Jiaotong Daxue xuebao, 2021
Aimed at the problem of avoidance strategy of formation satellites when facing the threat of space debris, a non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) is improved and used to code satellites. Besides, the improved differential evolution algorithm
