A lunar orbital capture guidance law is presented for a spacecraft with electrical propulsion system using Lyapunov feedback control approach. Construction of the Lyapunov function candidate is based on orbital elements which consist of angular momentum and eccentricity vectors. Unlike the orbit transfer problem between closed orbits, the lunar capture problem has two constraints. One thing is that...
In this paper, it is studied optimal coplanar orbit transfer of a satellite from a low Earth orbit to a low Earth orbit using electric propulsion system. In this case the satellite is passing through the shadow area of the Earth. During this time, supplying electric power to the satellite is going to be difficult due to the solar array which is under insufficient sun power. Henceforth, the Earth's...
