A Formation Flight Control System for Small Space Vehicles

Abstract

The invention discloses a spatial small aircraft formation flying control system. The spatial small aircraft formation flying control system comprises a task planning system, a formation calculation module, a primary aircraft control module, a formation pattern control module and a secondary aircraft control module, wherein the task planning module is used for sending a mission spatial characteristic and a target characteristic to the formation calculation module; the formation calculation module determines the optimal formation pattern of the spatial small aircrafts and sends the optimal formation pattern to the formation pattern control module; the task planning module is also used for sending a commanded flying state to the primary aircraft directly; the primary aircraft control module performs flying control to obtain a practical motion state; the formation pattern control module calculates to obtain a commanded motion state of a secondary aircraft and sends the calculation result to the secondary aircraft control module; the secondary aircraft control module performs flying control to obtain the practical motion state.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a small space vehicle, in particular to a formation flight control system of the small space vehicle. Background technique [0002] Spacecraft formation flight is a new space operation mode of spacecraft that emerged in the late 1990s with the development of computer technology, new materials, and new energy technologies. In the center force field, multiple spacecraft with the same orbital period fly close to each other, and can form a specific relative motion orbit with each other. The spacecraft cooperate with each other and are closely connected to form a large "virtual satellite" in a distributed manner. (or "distributed satellite system", "distributed spacecraft system"), resulting in the so-called "emergence" phenomenon in system theory, and its performance far exceeds that of the traditional single spacecraft system. Due to the broad application prospects of spacecraft formation flight in the fields of detection and com...
