Multiple Event Triggers in Linear Covariance Analysis for Spacecraft Rendezvous

摘要

Linear covariance analysis can serve as a viable technique in determining both navigation errors and trajectory dispersions for spacecraft rendezvous analysis and design. This work addresses issues that arise when multiple events are triggered on state conditions in linear covariance analysis. To demonstrate the validity of the proposed solutions, performance metrics such as trajectory dispersions, navigation errors, delta-v dispersions, and event time dispersions are carefully analyzed and confirmed with Monte Carlo simulation results.
