Flight Strategy Analysis of Forward Rendezvous and Docking

Performing forward rendezvous and docking(RVD) experimental validation during space lab missions can drastically improve the RVD technology,and provide a technological foundation for the forward RVD mission of the space station.Based on backward RVD scheme,flight strategies for forward RVD with or without fly-around are primarily designed,simulated and analyzed.Conclusions and advices for flight strategy of experimental validation of forward RVD are presented.
