Download or read book A Plan for Spacecraft Automated Rendezvous written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). This book was released on 2018-07-02. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An automated rendezvous approach has been developed that utilizes advances in technology to reduce real-time/near real-time flight operations support personnel to an acceptable level that is near the minimum without jeopardizing the success of the mission. The on-board flight targeting uses a rule-based system to select the pursuit vehicle phasing orbits and uses precise navigation updates from the pursuit/target spacecraft made possible by the global positioning system receivers/processors on both spacecraft to adjust the phasing orbits and achieve rendezvous. The ascent-to-orbit targeting for the pursuit vehicle has been successfully decoupled from the on-orbit orbit transfer phasing targeting. Typical launch window data have been developed for the heavy lift launch vehicle and cargo transfer vehicle for a Space Station Freedom rendezvous mission. Deaton, A. W. and Lomas, J.

Book Synopsis Automated Rendezvous and Docking of Spacecraft by : Wigbert Fehse
Download or read book Automated Rendezvous and Docking of Spacecraft written by Wigbert Fehse. This book was released on 2003-11-13. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive reference for space engineers on rendezvous and docking/berthing (RVD/B) related issues, this book answers key questions such as: How does the docking vehicle accurately approach the target spacecraft? What technology is needed aboard the spacecraft to perform automatic rendezvous and docking, and what systems are required by ground control to supervise this process? How can the proper functioning of all rendezvous-related equipment, systems and operations be verified before launch? The book provides an overview of the major issues governing approach and mating strategies, and system concepts for rendezvous and docking/berthing. These issues are described and explained such that aerospace engineers, students and even newcomers to the field can acquire a basic understanding of RVD/B. The author would like to extend his thanks to Dr Shufan Wu, GNC specialist and translator of the book's Chinese edition, for his help in the compilation of these important errata.

Book Synopsis An Assessment of the Technology of Automated Rendezvous and Capture in Space by : National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)
Download or read book An Assessment of the Technology of Automated Rendezvous and Capture in Space written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). This book was released on 2018-07-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents the results of a study to assess the technology of automated rendezvous and capture (AR&C) in space. The outline of the paper is as follows. First, the history of manual and automated rendezvous and capture and rendezvous and dock is presented. Next, the need for AR&C in space is established. Then, today's technology and ongoing technology efforts related to AR&C in space are reviewed. In light of these, AR&C systems are proposed that meet NASA's future needs, but can be developed in a reasonable amount of time with a reasonable amount of money. Technology plans for developing these systems are presented; cost and schedule are included. Polites, M. E. Marshall Space Flight Center...
