Abstract

In this paper, a method of rendezvous docking to an uncooperative target is presented by using adaptive control. When the docking to an uncooperative target is done, the inertia of the combined spacecraft is uncertain. Adaptive control can manage these uncertainties and the asymptotic tracking control is achieved by using backstepping technique in the framework of the globally nonsingular unit quaternion representation of a spacecraft.
