Abstract: The control method and control algorithm for homing and closing phases of space rendezvous are investigated.The transfer(from one holding point to another) control uses the(terminal) control method,and the position keeping in the holding points applies the trajectory(control) principle.The control aim of impulse guidance is the terminal position,while the control aim of continuous thrust guidance is the terminal position and velocity.The simulation results show that the control method and algorithm are effectual.
