Workshop on JAXA Astrodynamics and Flight Mechanics, 2009 (July 30-31, 2009. Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS), Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA)), Sagamihara, Kanagawa Japan
The problem of precise relative position keeping is studied in the formation flight of two spacecraft. Taking into account the applications to astronomic observation, the relative position of spacecraft is controlled to be precisely preserved on the part of the Keplerian orbits; moreover, it is preserved in the inertial coordinates. Then, the fuel-optimal eccentricities are studied for each length of control time.
