Abstract
Since the 20th century, countries have been conducting researches on near-spacecraft and have proposed a series of representative space vehicle concepts. This paper reviews the brief history of the development of reusable near-spacecraft and focuses on two combined cycle propulsion modes, SABRE and RBCC, with the goal of improving the performance of future near-spacecraft propulsion systems. An improving idea of combining the RBCC with the SABRE is proposed, and its possibility is discussed by analyzing the specific impulse curve. Two combining configurations of them and design principles are obtained by citing the literature and studying similar configurations. The two designs are also compared and the more optimized one is suggested, so as to offer some inspiration for future studies.
