Abstract

Dynamics and control of two-body and n -body tethered satellites are considered. At first, nonlinear roll and pitch motions of two-body systems are examined. Then the effects of aerodynamic and electrodynamic forces on the stability of a tethered satellite are discussed. Various control schemes to stabilize the dynamics during retrieval of the subsatellite are described. Finally, some dynamics and stability results for n -body tethered satellites are presented.
