    Calculating collision probability for long-term satellite encounters through the reachable domain method

    Satellite encounters during close operations, such as rendezvous, formation, and cluster flights, are typical long-term encounters. The collision probability in such an encounter is a primary safety concern. I...

    Reachable domain for spacecraft with ellipsoidal Delta-V distribution

    Conventional reachable domain (RD) problem with an admissible velocity increment, Δv, in an isotropic distribution, was extended to the general case with Δv in an anisotropic ellipsoidal distribution. Such an ...
