Autonomous Navigation And Guidance For terminal maneuver for docking using Model Predictive Static Programming (MPSP) and Unseented Kalman Filter (UKF)

摘要

1. MPSP offers better terminal phase control as compared to LQR. 2. MPSP can handle non linear dynamics, orbital disturbances like J2 perturbation and thruster disturbances. 3. UKF has showed improved estimated results than EKF by significantly reducing the transient level. 4. Due to thrusters firing in between thrusters impulses the EKF filter got disturbed where as UKF performed well.
