Universal adaptive control of satellite formation flying [PDF]
International Journal of Control, 2005 In this paper, a new universal adaptive control scheme for satellite formation flying is developed. The underlying idea of our design is to combine the domination design and the monotone adaptive gain. This scheme is guaranteed to have the properties of position tracking and full adaptivity against all parameters.

Satellite formation flying control by mass exchange [PDF]
Acta Astronautica, 2014 Abstract Novel approach for formation flying relative motion control is proposed and studied. It is based on a mass exchange between satellites. A certain mass is separated from one satellite in a given direction with a given velocity. It impacts absolutely inelastically another satellite to impart a pulse.
