Abstract: The control strategy for the final translation of space rendezvous is investigated in this paper. A main aim is keeping the target vehicle in the view field of RLS. The attitude angle and the relative position coordinations of the chaser are taken as controlled variables. The lateral boundary is set according to the limited value of the azimuth angle and elevation angle of the target as well as the attitude of the chaser. The velocity increments of control maneuvers are divided into several levels.
