多约束航迹规划与跟踪制导律

研究升力式飞行器多约束航迹规划与跟踪制导律设计。考虑到飞行器为满足任务需求规定了一定范围的禁飞区，为确保滑翔段末状态处于中末制导交班窗口内设置了严格的终端约束，导致传统基于最大升阻比、平衡滑翔策略的航迹规划不适用。针对飞行器在不同空域的动力学特性，结合飞行策略预划分手段分段提出不同状态下的攻角、倾侧角剖面，通过优化剖面构型参数将无穷维轨迹优化问题转化为有限维参数规划问题，完成多约束航迹规划。最后，考虑到气动不确定性带来的轨迹偏差，利用线性二次型调节器以位移加权误差最小为优化指标完成轨迹跟踪制导律设计，实现对规划航迹的在线纠偏，并通过仿真分析验证所提方法的有效性。

Aerial-ground collaborative routing with time constraints

The advancement of autonomous technology makes electric-powered drones an excellent choice for flexible logistics services at the last mile delivery stage. To reach a balance between green transportation and competitive edge, the collaborative routing of drones in the air and trucks on the ground is increasingly invested in the next generation of delivery, where it is particularly reasonable to consider customer time windows and time-dependent travel times as two typical time-related factors in daily services. In this paper, we propose the Vehicle Routing Problem with Drones under Time constraints (VRPD-T) and focus on the time constraints involved in realistic scenarios during the delivery. A mixed-integer linear programming model has been developed to minimize the total delivery completion time. Furthermore, to overcome the limitations of standard solvers in handling large-scale complex issues, a space-time hybrid heuristic-based algorithm has been developed to effectively identify a high-quality solution. The numerical results produced from randomly generated instances demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

To save the limited communication resources, an adaptive eventtriggered optimal guidance law is proposed by designing a synchronization-error-driven triggering condition, which brings together the consensus control with Adaptive Dynamic Programming(ADP) technique. Then, the developed event-triggered distributed control law can be employed by finding an approximate solution of eve...     

Model predictive control for close-proximity maneuvering of spacecraft with adaptive convexification of collision avoidance constraints

This study investigated model predictive control (MPC) for close-proximity maneuvering of spacecraft. It is essential for a designed MPC to effectively handle collision avoidance between the servicer spacecraft and the client spacecraft, especially while the client is rotating. The rotating motion of the client leads to dynamic changes in the collision avoidance constraints, which increases the difficulty of optimizing the control input in the MPC framework. Therefore, this study presents a method to improve the performance and computational efficiency of MPC for rendezvous and docking with a nonrotating or rotating client. An ellipsoid is adopted to model the client’s keep-out zone (KOZ). Given the spherical KOZ of the servicer, an expanded ellipsoid is introduced to describe the KOZ for the center of mass of the servicer and modeled as a nonlinear constraint. The linearization method for reference points located at the expanded ellipsoid is adopted to convexify the nonlinear constraints. The reference points are adaptively determined according to the positions of the servicer, client, and expanded ellipsoidal KOZ. The resulting hyperplanes are then used to describe the collision avoidance constraints. By utilizing the aforementioned strategies, combined with the calculated reference points, an adaptive convex programming algorithm suitable for real-time implementation of MPC is derived. The performance of the proposed method is demonstrated through numerical simulations.
