Abstract: The mathematical programming method was used to research the collision avoidance rules,evasion and control strategies,in two moving conditions,including formation of satellite configuration reconstruction and configuration failure reorganization.The system controllable matrix shows that the target phase can also be achieved without radial thrust,just consuming much more fuel compared with the whole thrust under the condition of configuration failure reorganization,the issues regarding the backup satellite′s parking location before moving,the location and moment selection of accessing into formation of satellite,and the failure satellite′s target orbit were discussed.The simulation results show that the proposed method is true,simple and effective.
