Abstract
Proximity operation can significantly improve the efficiency of eddy current de-tumbling. However, the tumbling motion and non-cooperation of space debris make the chaser execute collision avoidance maneuvers and be influenced by model uncertainty. In this paper, an inertial-oriented safety corridor is proposed by taking the debris' angular momentum as the central axis, which can avoid the frequent collision maneuvers of the chaser. Meanwhile, a desired de-tumbling trajectory under this safety corridor is designed to de-tumble the angular velocity of space debris. Then, a robust output-feedback controller considering safety corridor and model uncertainty is proposed by combining moving horizon estimation and model predictive control. The moving horizon estimation is employed to estimate the system state and model uncertainty which is compensated by a feedforward control law. Furthermore, the model predictive control without terminal ingredients is designed to realize the optimal performance of fuel consumption and the robust tracking stability of the system. Finally, taking the Chinese Sinosat-2 satellite as the simulation case, the effectiveness of the proposed scheme is verified.
