Development of a relative motion model for satellite formation flying around L2

Roberts, Jennifer A. (Cranfield University; School of Engineering, 2004-12-18)

A technique for satellite formation flying modelling in LEO is applied at L2. Analytical solutions to the equations of motion of a hub satellite relative to L2 are used to define a halo reference orbit. An expression for ...
The Development of high fidelity linearized J2 models for satellite formation flying control

Roberts, Jennifer A.; Roberts, Peter C. E. (2005-02-16)

The inclusion of the linearized J2 effect in the Hill equations of relative motion gives greater insight into satellite formation flying dynamics, and the opportunity to investigate alternative feedback control strategies ...
Satellite formation flying for an interferometry mission

Roberts, Jennifer A. (Cranfield UniversitySchool of Applied Sciences, 2005-10)

The autonomous formation flying of multiple spacecraft to replace a single large satellite will be an enabling technology for many future missions. In this research, the current status of formation flying missions and ...
