The release and retrieval of a CubeSat from a big spacecraft is useful for the external inspection and monitoring of the big spacecraft. However, docking maneuvers during the retrieval are challenging since safety constraints and high performance must be achieved, considering the small dimensions and the actual small satellites technology. The trajectory control is crucial to have a soft, accurate, quick, and propellant saving docking. The present paper deals with the design of a tracking model predictive controller (TMPC) tuned to achieve the stringent docking requirements for the retrieval of a CubeSat within the cargo bay of a large cooperative vehicle. The performance of the TMPC is verified using a complex model that includes non-linearities, uncertainties of the CubeSat parameters, and environmental disturbances. Moreover, 300 Monte Carlo runs demonstrate the robustness of the TMPC solution.

Industrial processes are inherently nonlinear with input, state, and output constraints. A proper control system should handle these challenging control problems over a large operating region. The robust model predictive controller (RMPC) could be an linear matrix inequality (LMI)-based method that estimates stability region of the closed-loop system as an ellipsoid. This presentation, however, restricts confident application of the controller on systems with large operating regions. In this paper, a dual-mode control strategy is employed to enlarge the stability region in first place and then, trajectory reversing method (TRM) is employed to approximate the stability region more accurately. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed scheme is illustrated on a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) process.
