Abstract Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS)
for aerospace applications have brought about new opportunities for the fast-growing …

This paper investigates the fixed-time stability of spacecraft formation flying by considering
input saturation and prescribed performance constraints, including the safe distance …

This article investigates the coupled attitude and orbit tracking maneuver control problem of
a spacecraft system in close space missions with model uncertainty, unknown disturbance …

This paper addresses the optimal orbit rendezvous problem for thrust-vectoring spacecraft.
In this scenario, the chaser spacecraft is equipped with only one impulsive thruster fixed in …

In this paper, the fixed-time stability of spacecraft formation reconfiguration (position
tracking) is studied. Firstly, a novel nonsingular terminal sliding mode surface is designed …

This article addresses the problem of spacecraft reorientation subject to attitude pointing,
angular velocity, and actuator constraints. In order to tackle the attitude pointing constraints …

This article addresses the coupled orbit-attitude tracking problem using low-thrust
propulsion while aiming to minimize on-board spacecraft system communication. An …

Inspired by the integrated guidance and control design for endo-atmospheric aircraft, the
integrated position and attitude control of spacecraft has attracted increasing attention and …

The finite-time controller under safe constraint is designed for the non-cooperative space
autonomous rendezvous and docking by using the artificial potential function. To facilitate …

This paper addresses the robust attitude consensus tracking problem for spacecraft
formation flying (SFF) systems in the presence of unknown lumped disturbances including …
