Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of launch vehicle control, and relates to a full-window adaptive guidance method for launching a geocentric transfer orbit. BACKGROUND

[0002] The target orbit of a launch vehicle launching a Mars probe is a geocentric transfer orbit. In order to reduce the fuel consumption of the probe during the transfer, while ensuring that the probe can enter the sphere of influence of Mars, the flight trajectory and target orbit of the launch vehicle need to be designed in detail. In the traditional design method, the launch window is discretely divided into several adjacent equal-interval sub-windows, and a corresponding target orbit and trajectory are designed for each sub-window, so the guidance system needs to design multiple trajectories. Under this design method, the fuel consumption of the probe during the transfer is not optimal. If a geocentric transfer orbit that matches the launch time is to be obtained, the time length of the sub-window needs to be shortened, which will greatly increase the number of trajectories, increasing the workload of the ground design and being not conducive to the command decision-making before the launch of the rocket. SUMMARY

[0003] The technical problem solved by the present application is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a full-window adaptive guidance method for launching a geocentric transfer orbit. For a launch vehicle mission that requires high-precision orbit insertion within the full window of a geocentric transfer orbit, the program angle and shutdown parameters are adjusted on the basis of the traditional iterative guidance. Based on the launch time, the iterative guidance target orbit, the estimated remaining flight time, the iterative initial value, and the compensation calculation of the shutdown parameters are used to correct the iterative guidance program angle, realize the adaptive adjustment of the active stage guidance method, and achieve the purpose of high-precision orbit insertion within the full window.

[0022]

[0023] where k T0 , k T1 , k T2 are the coefficients of the quadratic curve function of the estimated remaining flight time, k r0 , k r1 , k r2 are the coefficients of the quadratic curve function of the geocentric vector of the orbit entry point r k , k V0 , k V1 , k V2 are the coefficients of the quadratic curve function of the root mean square of the orbit entry point velocity V k , k θ0 , k θ1 , k θ2 are the coefficients of the quadratic curve function of the velocity inclination angle of the orbit entry point θ k .

[0024] Further, the program angle is updated by iteration guidance calculation in each guidance cycle, specifically:

[0025] Based on the apogee height H a , the perigee height H p , the orbit inclination i, the perigee argument ω, and the corrected ascending node longitude Ω * of the iteration guidance target orbit parameters, T k , r k , V k , and θ k are taken as the iteration initial values, the iteration guidance calculation is performed in each guidance cycle to update T k , r k , V k , and θ k, the iterative guidance pitch procedure angle φ and the yaw procedure angle ψ are obtained.

[0026] Further, the shutdown amount of the last active stage is updated, specifically:
