Abstract
This paper presents a distributed control law with disturbance observer for the autonomous assembly of a fleet of flexible spacecraft to construct a large flexible space structure. The fleet of flexible spacecraft is driven to the pre-assembly configuration firstly, and then to the desired assembly configuration. A distributed assembly control law with disturbance observer is proposed by treating the flexible dynamics as disturbances acting on the rigid motion of the flexible spacecraft. Theoretical analysis shows that the control law can actuate the fleet to the desired configuration. Moreover, the collision avoidance between the members is also considered in the process from initial configuration to pre-assembly configuration. Finally, a numerical example is presented to verify the feasibility of proposed mission planning and the effectiveness of control law.
