Architecture and Strategy of the Intelligent Hybrid Autonomous System for Complex Mixed Spacecraft

Abstract

For manned spacecraft, constellation and other types of complex mixed spacecraft, in view of the complexity of the system construction and the long-term nature of their on-orbit service including multiple spacecraft building, system multi-module integration, changeable operation and working mode and uncertainty of on-orbit environment, the ability of autonomous operation is essential for long-term reliable flight, automatic emergency disposal and the reduction of ground resource commitment. In this paper, the construction of the intelligent autonomous system of single spacecraft centralized mode and multi-spacecraft networking hybrid mode is researched, in order to realize efficient communication and effective negotiation among multi-agents. Based on mixed method of data, model and expert rules, an intelligent autonomous strategy with combined hierarchical structure is formed at spacecraft, subsystem and equipment levels, which can provide a good reference for autonomous management of highly-integrated single spacecraft system, constellation and complex multi-spacecraft system.
