Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the research field of spacecraft control technology, and relates to an adaptive control method for a space tether robot to recover a target after close-distance capture. Background technique
[0002] Due to the advantages of space tethered robots in catching non-cooperative target tasks such as flexibility, safety, and low cost, space tethered robots have potential applications in space junk cleaning and rescue of failed satellites. Especially in recent years, the amount of space junk has increased rapidly, and the problem of cleaning up invalid satellites (non-cooperative satellites) has been put on the agenda by many countries. Because of the maneuverable flight capability of the tethered robot, when it captures the target satellite, the main satellite is always in a safe area. And the tethered robot can work repeatedly. Space tethered robots are considered a reliable method of cleaning up dead satellites.
