The  concept of B-plane was used nea earth and Mars. The boundary condition of the TPBVP can be analytically determined by the geometrical characteristics between B-plane and its associatedhyperbolic orbit, and the reason that four kinds of trajectories can be obtained was explained. An accurate mathematical formulation describing the closest approach time to Marswas also proposed. An illustrative example was presented and the results were coincided with satellite tool kit. Related Articles | Metrics

In order to solve this problem, a new algorithm was proposed by using the angular velocitydirectly without obtaining the angular increment from the angular velocity through Simpson formula or trapezoid formula. Moreover, the four sample rotationvector algorithm was derived, and the mechanism of the coning error was given. At last, the simulation results of the proposed algorithm and thetheoretical one were compared. Related Articles | Metrics

It′s also important to improve the accuracy ofthe methodology as far as possible. Radial basis function (RBF) neural network was firstly applied for compensation of modeling error in order to increase the accuracy of the scheme, a Lyapunov function was used to prove its property. The residual and threshold and fault detection time were got through nonlinear observer. Fault signal was reconstructed by using RBF network, and accordingly a learning FDD strategy was presented. Validations were respectively designed for characteristics of residual threshold, detection time and the ability of RBF for reconstruction.

In this model, the mapping relationship of discrete time traffic and topology （DT-TT） was established according to the dynamic characteristics of a constellation topology and complicated global traffic. Based on Markov process theory and the constraints of link capacity, some quantitative formulas of the performance indexes, in terms of blocking probability and end-to-end delay, were derived by using probability analysis method on real-time and non real-time traffic. Numerous simulation and numerical results show the validity and correctness of the methodology. The proposed method can be also applied to the design of QoS routing control and resource allocation for multimedia LEO satellite networks.  Related Articles | Metrics

Quaternion Method with Modified Constraint Equation for Nonsingular Orbital Elements WEI Peng-Xin, JING Wu-Xing, GAO Chang-Sheng 2012, 32 (1):  66-71.  doi: 10.3780/j.issn.1000-758X.2012.01.010 Abstract ( 1944 )   PDF (329KB) ( 1731 )   Save The singularity problem of orbital elements for describing the orbital motion of the spacecraft can be solved by quaternion method. Due to the inherent double value of the quaternion, it is difficult to select positive or negative value of the quaternion for the integration of the motion equation. The quaternionmethodology with a modified constraint equation was introduced to describe Lagrange′s planetary equations. The influence of the earth oblateness perturbation on the orbit of the geostationary satellite was researched. The results show that when the eccentricity is less than 1, the quaternion can be  used to solve singularity problem caused by orbital elements. Compared with the modified equinoctial orbit elements, the quaternion has a clearer  physical and geometrical interpretation. The variable motion equation with the quaternion can be calculated more simply and integrated more efficiently. In addition,the calculation error can also meet the requirements. Related Articles | Metrics

Numerical Optimization for Spacecraft Module Identification LIU Yong-Jian, LIU Yu-Qiang, SHI Jun, TAN Chun-Lin 2012, 32 (1):  77-83.  doi: 10.3780/j.issn.1000-758X.2012.01.012 Abstract ( 1797 )   PDF (455KB) ( 1695 )   Save To overcome the problem that spacecraft module identification mainly relies on experience and qualitative methods,a general numerical optimization for module identification method was constructed. Function units based numerical design structure matrix (DSM) was obtained by using functional decomposition method, relativity evaluation criteria and coevolution mechanism between design matrix and DSM. A general DSM based optimization model was constructed which conformed to axiomatic design axioms. A genetic-simulated annealing algorithm was used to construct a module identification method which could co-optimize the mode and the number of module identification. Finally, an evaluation method for different optimization targets was put forward. Simulation results show that the proposed method can divide a spacecraft into several modules with high cohesion degree and low coupling degree. Related Articles | Metrics
