Lambert's problem is the two-point boundary value problem for Keplerian dynamics. The
parameter and solution space is surveyed for both the zero-and multiple-revolution …

This study proposes a rapid algorithm to achieve relative orbit transfer based on constant-
vector thrust acceleration control, where the magnitude and direction of the thrust …

The complete parameter space for Lambert's problem includes all possible geometries, flight
times, and revolutions. An earlier work exploited a rectangular form of this parameter space …

There is an increasing interest in future space missions devoted to the exploration of key
moons in the Solar system. These many different missions may involve libration point orbits …

Lambert's problem has been long studied in the context of space operations; its solution
enables accurate orbit determination and spacecraft guidance. This work presents an …

This paper investigates the orbital pursuit strategy for spacecraft swarms, where both
pursuers and evaders possess limited delta-v maneuvering capabilities. Given that swarms …

Abstract Space debris poses a great threat to space stations. When a collision hazard is
detected, the space station's orbit should be adjusted. An alternative approach is to apply …

An analytical initial orbit determination (IOD) method using two observations from a bistatic
radar is proposed. Each observation contains bistatic range and the doppler frequency shift …

A numerical approach to solve the perturbed Lambert's problem is presented. The proposed
technique uses the theory of functional connections, which allows the derivation of a …

The simultaneous interception of multiple exo-atmospheric threat targets can leave no buffer
time for the targets and greatly reduces targets' penetration probability. This paper proposes …
