Quasi-linear model reference tracking control of approaching non-cooperative target based on direct parametric control

In this paper, a robust integrated translation and rotation tracking controller is proposed base on model reference tracking of quasi-linear system and direct parametric control approach for approaching non-cooperative target under the presence of parameter uncertainty. A tracking controller is provided in quasi-linear framework, which consists of the feedback stabilizing controller and the feed-froward compensator controller such that relative location between servicing spacecraft and target and relative attitude between chaser and the Earth can asymptotically tracking the given signal, the servicing spacecraft can observe the operating state or determine the fault point hovering on the non-cooperative target, further the integrative thruster layout is taking into account. A numerical simulation demonstrates the effect of the designed control strategy.
