The control problems on a space robot during its approach to an information geostationary satellite are considered. The robot motion control system uses an electric propulsion system with 8 engines at the pulse-width modulation of their thrust values and a gyroscopic moment cluster based on 4 gyrodines with digital control. Numerical results are presented that demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed discrete guidance and control algorithms.

The purpose of this paper is the design of guidance and control algorithms for orbital space maneuvers. A 6-dof orbital simulator, based on Clohessy-Wiltshire-Hill equations, is developed in C language, considering cold gas reaction thrusters and reaction wheels as actuation system. The computational limitations of on-board computers are also included. A combination of guidance and control algorithms for an orbital maneuver is proposed: (i) a suitably designed Zero-Effort-Miss/Zero-Effort-Velocity (ZEM/ZEV) algorithm is adopted for the guidance and (ii) a linear quadratic regulator (LQR) is used for the attitude control. The proposed approach is verified for different cases, including external environment disturbances and errors on the actuation system.

Methods for guidance and motion control of a space robot during a flyby of a geostationary satellite at a visual monitoring its technical state are considered. Numerical results are presented that demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed discrete guidance and control algorithms.
