[0002] Guidance for safe planetary landings is a crucial issue in planetary exploration, crucial to the success of the entire planetary landing mission. With the continuous advancement of aerospace technology and the increasing ambition of space science research, future planetary exploration missions will tend to land in areas of greater scientific interest. These areas often have complex topography and rugged surfaces, with numerous terrain obstacles such as rocks, slopes, depressions, and hills. These obstacles pose a threat to the safety of planetary probes and increase the difficulty of landing on the target celestial body. A trajectory curvature guidance method based on an energy-optimal feedback guidance law controls the sign of the landing trajectory curvature function to guide the probe down along a geometrically convex trajectory. This method improves the probe's terrain obstacle avoidance capability and expands the observable range of the landing area. Summary of the Invention

It has the following advantages: (1) It can further increase the relative height of the probe when facing surface obstacles, and ensure the safe landing of the probe when the surface obstacle is higher than the initial height of the probe. (2) Compared with the trajectory curvature guidance method, this method requires lower energy consumption. (3) The guidance law is an analytical guidance law with a simple form and high solution efficiency, which can improve the real-time performance of the guidance law on the onboard computer of the probe.
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions.
[0005] The invention discloses an augmented curvature guidance method for soft landing of extraterrestrial objects, which establishes the dynamic equations of the probe in the fixed coordinate system of the planetary surface. According to the trajectory geometric curvature theory and combined with the energy optimal guidance law, the basic form of trajectory curvature guidance is established and the extended form of curvature guidance is derived. In the trajectory curvature guidance law, the thrust compensation term is used to characterize whether the probe is in the obstacle influence area and the compensatory thrust applied to the obstacle influence area, thereby obtaining the augmented curvature guidance law for soft landing of extraterrestrial objects. The obtained acceleration is used to guide the soft landing of extraterrestrial objects, further improving the relative height of the probe when facing surface obstacles, thereby improving the obstacle avoidance capability of the probe facing surface obstacles.
[0006] The invention discloses an augmented curvature guidance method for soft landing of an extraterrestrial object, comprising the following steps:
[0007] Step 1: Establish a surface-fixed rectangular coordinate system for the target planet and establish the probe dynamic equations in this coordinate system.
[0008] A fixed rectangular coordinate system O-XYZ on the planetary surface is established with the target landing point as the origin O, where the Z axis is perpendicular to the local ground plane at the landing point, and its positive direction points to the outside of the target celestial body; the X axis is in the local ground plane at the landing point, and coincides with the cross product vector of the positive direction of the Z axis and the rotation direction of the target celestial body; the Y axis, X axis, and Z axis together form a right-handed coordinate system.
[0009] When the probe moves on the surface fixed connection, the inertial force and other disturbance forces caused by the planet's rotation have a smaller impact on the probe's movement than the control force generated by the engine and the planet's gravity. The inertial force and other disturbance forces caused by the planet's rotation can be ignored. During the landing and obstacle avoidance phase, since the probe's movement time is short, the gravitational acceleration g it experiences is equivalent to a constant vector. The dynamic equation of the probe system is:
[0010]
[0011] Where r = [r x ,r y ,r z ] T and v=[v x ,v y ,v z ] T They represent the position and velocity of the detector under the surface fixed connection, T=[T x ,T y ,T z ] T and a=[a x ,a y ,a z ] T They represent the three-axis components of the detector control force and control acceleration in the surface fixed connection, m represents the mass of the detector, I sp Indicates engine specific impulse, g e is the acceleration due to gravity at sea level.
[0012] Step 2: Calculate the remaining time t required for landing based on the current state of the probe go According to the trajectory geometric curvature theory and combined with the energy optimal guidance law, the basic form of trajectory curvature guidance is established, and the extended form of curvature guidance is derived based on the basic form of trajectory curvature guidance.
[0013] According to the current state of the detector X=[r T ,vT ] T Calculate the remaining time t required for landing go , is the positive real root of the equation shown in formula (2).
[0014]
[0015] In order to make the probe land along a convex trajectory, it is first necessary to determine the concavity and convexity trend of the trajectory in its current state. According to the trajectory geometric curvature theory, the condition for the trajectory to be convex in the XOZ plane is
[0016] v x (r z v x -r x v z )>0 (3)
[0017] The condition for the trajectory to be convex in the YOZ plane is
[0018] v y (r z v y -r y v z )>0 (4)
[0019] For the XOZ or YOZ plane, if the detector initial state satisfies v x (r z v x -r x v z )<0 or v y (r z v y -r y v z )<0, need t c The constant acceleration of the time period transforms the concave state into a convex trajectory state. The superscript "0" indicates the initial moment of the landing phase. If the initial state of the probe satisfies v x (r z v x -r x v z )>0 or v y (r z v y -r y v z )>0 and a turning point appears under the analytical optimal guidance law, it is necessary to apply t from the turning point c constant acceleration over a period of time, and "TP" means turning point, Indicates the remaining flight time at the turning point. If there is no turning point, the trajectory curvature guidance at this time is the analytically optimal guidance.
[0020] Combining formulas (3) and (4) and combining them with the analytical energy optimal guidance law, the basic form of trajectory curvature guidance is constructed as shown in formula (5):
[0021]
[0022] To obtain the extended form of curvature guidance, the magnitude of the constant acceleration is expressed as
[0023] a TP =na OTP (6)
[0024] Where a OTP is the acceleration calculated by analytically analyzing the optimal guidance law at the turning point, and n is a positive real number defined as the acceleration coefficient.
[0025] Step 3: In the trajectory curvature guidance law, the thrust compensation term γa is used com Characterizing whether the probe is in the obstacle influence area and the compensation thrust applied in the obstacle influence area, the augmented curvature guidance method for soft landing of extraterrestrial objects is obtained. By defining the compensation thrust a com The specific form of the on-off function γ for the compensatory thrust and its effect on the probe's range are used to derive the X, Y, and Z-axis components of the augmented curvature guidance method for extraterrestrial soft landings. This augmented curvature guidance method can further increase the probe's relative height when facing surface obstacles, thereby improving the probe's obstacle avoidance capabilities.
[0026] In order to further increase the relative height of the probe when facing surface obstacles and ensure the safe landing of the probe when the surface obstacles are higher than the initial height of the probe, the thrust compensation term γa is used in the trajectory curvature guidance law. com Characterizing whether the probe is in the obstacle influence area and the compensatory thrust applied in the obstacle influence area, the augmented curvature guidance method for soft landing of extraterrestrial objects is obtained as shown in formula (7):

Define another cylinder with the same center as the inner cylinder as the outer cylinder, δ jo and δ jh are the height and radius of the jth outer cylinder, and satisfy δ jo >d jo >0 and δ jh >z jo > 0. When the probe is located in the area between the two cylinders, the compensating thrust takes effect, γ = 1. When the probe is located outside the outer cylinder, the probe performs curvature guidance landing according to the guidance law shown in formula (5), and the compensating thrust does not take effect, γ = 0. The expression of γ is

[0058] like Figure 1 As shown, the analytical obstacle avoidance guidance method for safe soft landing of an extraterrestrial object disclosed in this embodiment is specifically implemented in the following steps:
[0059] Step 1 is implemented as follows:
[0060] A fixed rectangular coordinate system O-XYZ on the planetary surface is established with the target landing point as the origin O, where the Z axis is perpendicular to the local ground plane at the landing point, and its positive direction points to the outside of the target celestial body; the X axis is in the local ground plane at the landing point, and coincides with the cross product vector of the positive direction of the Z axis and the rotation direction of the target celestial body; the Y axis, X axis, and Z axis together form a right-handed coordinate system.
[0061] When the probe moves on the surface fixed connection, the inertial force and other disturbance forces caused by the planet's rotation have a smaller impact on the probe's movement than the control force generated by the engine and the planet's gravity.

If the initial state of the probe satisfies v x (r z v x -r x v z )>0 or v y (r z v y -r y v z )>0 and a turning point appears under the analytical optimal guidance law, it is necessary to apply t from the turning point c constant acceleration over a period of time, and "TP" means turning point, Indicates the remaining flight time at the turning point. If there is no turning point, the trajectory curvature guidance at this time is the analytically optimal guidance. Combining formulas (3) and (4) and combining them with the analytical energy optimal guidance law, the basic form of trajectory curvature guidance is constructed as shown in formula (5): To obtain the extended form of curvature guidance, the magnitude of the constant acceleration is expressed as a TP =na OTP (6) In the formula, a OTP is the acceleration calculated by analytically analyzing the optimal guidance law at the turning point, and n is a positive real number defined as the acceleration coefficient.
