Minimum-fuel and -time orbit transfer are two major goals of the satellite trajectory optimization. In this paper, we consider satellites in two coplanar elliptic orbits when the apsidal lines coincide, and analytically find the conditions for the two-impulse minimum-time transfer orbit using Lambert's theorem. The transfer time is a decreasing function of a variable related to the transfer orbit's semimajor axis in the minimum-time case. In the minimum-time case, there is no unique minimum-time solution, but there is a limiting solution. However, there exists a unique solution in the case of minimum-fuel transfer, fur which we find analytically the necessary and sufficient conditions. As a special case, we consider when the transfer angle is one hundred and eighty degrees. In this case, we show that we obtain the classical fuel-optimal Hohmann transfer orbit. We also derive the Hohmann transfer rime and delta-velocity equations from more general equations, which are obtained using Lambert's theorem. We note the tradeoff between minimum-time and - fuel transfer. An optimal coplanar orbit maneuver algorithm to trade off the minimum-time goal against the minimum-fuel goal is proposed. Finally, the numerical simulation results are given to demonstrate the derived theory and the algorithm.

The objective of this study was to optimize minimum-energy impulsive spacecraft intercept using genetic algorithms. A mathematical model was established on two-body system based on f and g solution and universal variable to address spacecraft intercept problem for non-coplanar elliptical orbits. This nonlinear problem includes many local optima due to discontinuity and strong nonlinearity. In addition, since it does not provide a closed-form solution, it must be solved using a numerical method. Therefore, the initial guess is that a very sensitive factor is needed to obtain globally optimal values. Genetic algorithms are effective for solving these kinds of optimization problems due to inherent properties of random search algorithms. The main goal of this paper was to find minimum energy solution for orbit transfer problem. The numerical solution using initial values evaluated by the genetic algorithm matched with results of Hohmann transfer. Such optimal solution for unrestricted arbitrary elliptic orbits using universal variables provides flexibility to solve orbit transfer problems.

The precise prediction of future position of satellite depends on the accurate determination of orbit, which is also helpful in performing orbit maneuvers and trajectory correction maneuvers. For estimating the orbit of satellite many methods are being used. Some of the conventional methods are based on (i) Differential Correction (DC) (ii) Extended Kalman Filter (EKF). In this paper, Differential Evolution (DE) is used to determine the orbit. Orbit Determination using DC and EKF requires some initial guess of the state vector to initiate the algorithm, whereas DE does not require an initial guess since a wide range of bounds for the design unknown variables (orbital elements) is sufficient. This technique is uniformly valid for all orbits viz. circular, elliptic or hyperbolic. Simulated observations have been used to demonstrate the performance of the method. The observations are generated by including random noise. The simulation model that generates the observations includes the perturbation due to non-spherical earth up to second zonal harmonic term.

The current paper presents application of a new analytic solution in general relative motion to spacecraft formation flying in an elliptic orbit. The calculus of variations is used to analytically find optimal trajectories and controls for the given problem. The inverse of the fundamental matrix associated with the dynamic equations is not required for the solution in the current study. It is verified that the optimal thrust vector is a function of the fundamental matrix of the given state equations. The cost function and the state vector during the reconfiguration can be analytically obtained as well. The results predict the form of optimal solutions in advance without having to solve the problem. Numerical simulation shows the brevity and the accuracy of the general analytic solutions developed in the current paper.

최근에 제안된, 이웃하는 타원 궤도의 상대운동에 대한 몇 가지 양함수형 해를 분석하였다. 이 해를 이용한 상대운동 결과를 일반 선형화 운동 방정식의 해석적 해와 비교했다. 수치계산 결과를 위한 초기 조건은 Hill-Clohessy-Wiltshire(HCW) 운동방정식에 의한 해의 역함수로 구했다. 기준 궤도의 차이에도 불구하고 상대적으로 작은 이심률의 궤도 일 경우에는 타원 상대운동 궤도와 원 상대운동 궤도의 결과는 근접했다. 주위성의 궤도가 상대적으로 큰 이심률을 가질 경우에는, 기본 궤도로 원 궤도를 이용하는 HCW 운동방정식은 다른 타원 상대운동 궤도 방정식의 해보다 상대적으로 큰 오차를 갖는다.

This study deals with the generalization of the Elliptic Restricted Three-Body Problem (ER3BP) by considering the effects of radiation and oblate spheroid primaries. This may illustrate a gas giant exoplanet orbiting its host star with eccentric orbit. In the three dimensional case, this generalization may possess two additional equilibrium points ($L_{6,7}$, out-of-plane). We determine the existence of $L_{6,7}$ in ER3BP under the effects of radiation (bigger primary) and oblateness (small primary). We analytically derive the locations of $L_{6,7}$ and assume initial approximations of (${\mu}-1$, ${\pm}\sqrt{3A_2}$), where ${\mu}$ and $A_2$ are the mass parameter and oblateness factor, respectively. The fixed locations are then determined. Our results show that the locations of $L_{6,7}$ are periodic and affected by $A_2$ and the radiation factor ($q_1$).

RT Per has been known as a close binary of which the orbital period has unpredictably varied so far. Although there are no agreements with the working mechanism for the changes of the period, two interpretations have been suggested and waiting for to be tested: 1) light-time effects due to the unseen 3rd and 4rd bodies (Panchatsaram 1981), 2) Abrupt period-changes, due to internal variations of the system (e.g. mass transfer or mass loss) superimposing to the light-time effect by a 3rd body (Frieboes-Conde & Herczeg 1973). In the point of view that the former interprepation models could predict the behavior of the changes of the orbital period theoretically, we checked whether the recent observed times of minimum lights follow the perdictions by the first model or not. We confirmed that the observed times of minimum lights have followed the variations calculated by the light-times effects due to the 3rd and 4rd bodies suggested by Panchatsatam. In this paper a total of 626 times of minimum lights were reanalyzed in terms of the light-time effects by the 3rd and 4rd bodies. We concluded that the eclipsing pair in SVCam system moves in an elliptic orbit about center of mass of the triple system with a period of about $42.^y2$, while the mass center of the triplet is in light-time orbit about the center of mass of the quadruple system with a period of $120^y$. The mean masses deduced for the 3rd and 4rd bodies were $0.89m_\odot$ and $0.82m_\odot$, respectively.

본 논문은 지구의 J2 섭동을 고려한 비공면 타원궤도에서의 우주비행체의 요격 문제를 다룬다. J2에 의한 영향은 지구를 돌고 있는 우주비행체 궤도를 변화시키는 주된 요인이 되며, 이를 해결하기 위해 실시간 요격 방법을 제안한다. 구형의 지구와 순간추력을 고려한 운동방정식을 기반으로 최적화 문제를 구성하고 수치적으로 얻어진 최적해를 인터셉터의 추진방향으로 설정한다. 위치 오차는 최적화 문제를 반복적으로 해결하고 인터셉터의 추진방향을 수정하는 방식으로 해결한다. 다양한 궤도를 상황을 고려하여 제안하는 방법을 검증한다.

본 논문에서는 서로 다른 궤도상에 있는 두 우주비행체의 랑데부를 위한 최소 에너지 순간추력을 구하는 문제를 다룬다. 두 우주비행체의 궤도는 공면 궤도나 원 궤도 같이 특정 지어진 궤도가 아닌 일반적인 궤도이다. 이러한 최적화 문제를 다루기 위해 범용변수를 사용한 케플러 방정식과 두 우주비행체의 최종 위치 및 속도를 구속조건으로 사용하며, 전이 궤도의 정보를 얻기 위해 라그랑지 계수를 이용한다. 이 방법은 최소 에너지를 고려한 예시와 대기시간까지 고려한 예시를 통해 보여 지며, 최소 에너지 궤도로 알려진 호만 궤도와 비교함으로써 검증된다. 비록 닫힌 형태의 해를 얻을 수는 없었지만, 수치해석적 방식을 적용함으로써 다양한 궤도 전이 문제의 해를 구할 수 있음을 보여준다.

The forced vibration with the symmetric boundary condition in nonlinear structure is studied by utilizing the characteristic of the free vibration which have two modes with the similar natural frequency. Two linear modes exist to have no concern with the amplitude. It is found that the normal mode or elliptic orbit as the newly coupled modes is generated in accordance with changing the stability. It is also known that responses for forced vibration having the small external force and damping are near mode of free vibration and the stability for each response is determined according to the stability for each response is determined according to the stability in mode of free vibration. Finally the stability and bifurcation are analyzed in proportion to increment of external force and damping.
