Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for keeping a low-thrust long-term position of a geostationary orbit satellite, in particular to important technologies such as analysis of a long-term motion rule of the geostationary orbit satellite, keeping of a low-thrust position in/out of an orbit plane and the like, and belongs to the field of spacecraft orbit dynamics and control.
Background
The spacecraft running on the Geostationary Orbit (GEO) has the characteristics of large coverage area and high economic value relative to the ground stillness. The development of geostationary orbit spacecraft has mainly presented three "big" trends: firstly, flexible parts carried by the spacecraft are larger and larger (a 50-meter long solar panel, a hectometer-level antenna, two mechanical arms more than 2 meters and the like); secondly, the spacecraft body is getting bigger and bigger, and the quality of the spacecraft body reaches dozens or even hundreds of tons; thirdly, the economic volume is getting bigger and bigger, and the spacecraft such as the communication satellite on the GEO and the like have billions of RMB in cost, and the economic benefit generated every year is more considerable.
Due to the perturbation law of the stationary orbit, the longitude of the equator occupied by a single stationary orbit satellite is about +/-0.1 degree, so that only 1800 stationary orbit satellites can be operated in orbit at the same time theoretically. However, with the increase of space launch, the influence and potential threat of space debris such as failed spacecrafts on high orbit on large and complex stationary orbit satellites are not negligible. The geostationary orbit satellite ensures the normal function of the geostationary orbit satellite through position maintenance, but increasingly complex space environments and increasingly sophisticated in-orbit missions put higher requirements on the task of position maintenance of the geostationary orbit.
The position maintenance of GEO satellites is classified into two types, pulse position maintenance and low thrust position maintenance. The electric propulsion system providing the small thrust has the characteristic of high specific impulse, has smaller fuel consumption compared with a chemical propulsion system providing the pulse thrust, and plays an important role in promoting the effective load of the satellite and prolonging the on-orbit time of the satellite.
The method for keeping the position with the small thrust designed by part of the existing documents aims to eliminate the orbit drift caused by orbit perturbation through an efficient optimization algorithm and ensure the position keeping accuracy of the geostationary orbit satellite in a fixed-point window. The literature (Frederik J.de Bruijn, Stephan Theil, Daniel Choukroun, Eberhard Gill, geographic Satellite Station-Keeping Using Convex Optimization, Journal of Guidance Control and Dynamics,39(3),2016, pp.605-616) turns the low thrust position maintenance problem into a Convex Optimization problem, proposing a closed-loop Control law, but high-precision position maintenance can only be performed over a Control period of several days. A method for initially guessing a covariance value is proposed in the literature (Shuge Zhao, Pini Guifil, Jingrui Zhang, Initial Costates for Low-thread Minimum-Time Station Change of Geostationary Satellites, Journal of guiding Control and Dynamics,39(12),2016, pp.2745-2754), but the related method is based on specific assumptions and has better convergence only in some cases. The current position keeping strategy emphasizes counteracting the influence of the perturbation of the stationary orbit on the motion of the satellite, and does not fully utilize the long-term characteristic of the perturbation motion of the satellite; on the other hand, a set of collaborative initial value guessing method with strong universality is lacked to improve the convergence stability and the convergence speed of the position maintenance optimization algorithm.

By introducing the parameters of table 3 into the average hamiltonian of the out-of-plane motion (i.e., equation (9)), an equilibrium solution (Ω -0 °, Φ -7.435 °) can be obtained, and the simulation results are shown in fig. 3. FIG. 3 reveals the periodic law of out-of-plane motion of a geostationary orbit satellite, i.e. located at any point (λ) of the phase planek≤14.6°,) After a long-term evolution of the orbit, a periodic motion trajectory around a stable equilibrium point (Ω ═ 0 °, Φ ═ 7.435 °) will be formed, which is also true for the stationary orbit satellite located at latitude Φ ═ 0.5 ° in this example.
Step two: obtaining a long-period motion track, namely a drift section track of the satellite in the fixed point window in an uncontrolled state by selecting a fixed point position holding window of the geostationary orbit satellite;
according to the international consensus that a single geostationary orbit satellite occupies a fixed point longitude, the longitude interval contained in a fixed point window of the geostationary orbit satellite is selected to be [0 degrees, 0.1 degrees ]; according to the periodic law of the out-of-plane motion of the geostationary orbit satellite, the latitude interval included in the fixed-point window of the geostationary orbit satellite is selected to be [0 degrees, 0.5 degrees ].

The following three, four and five steps form a design link of the low-thrust optimal time/fuel position holding control law, and the specific flow is shown in fig. 4.
Step three: establishing a low-thrust position keeping control model of the satellite in and out of the orbital plane;
the static orbit satellite in the example carries an electric propulsion system, and an electric thruster can generate constant continuous small thrust to the satellite, wherein the amplitude of the thrust is T200 mN, and the specific impulse is Isp3800 s. And substituting the related parameters into the formula (12) and the formula (13), namely obtaining the low-thrust position keeping control model of the geostationary orbit satellite in the orbit plane and out of the orbit plane.
Step four: and establishing a time optimal and fuel optimal solving model for maintaining the low thrust position based on the satellite drift section track obtained in the second step and the satellite low thrust position maintaining control model obtained in the third step.
In order to enable the static orbit satellite to be always positioned in a fixed point window, a drift section track and a thrust section track need to form a closed loop track; therefore, the initial state point of the track of the thrust section is superposed with the final state point of the track of the drift section, and the final state point of the track of the thrust section is superposed with the initial state point of the track of the drift section; therefore, the initial and final states of the time and fuel optimal model are constrained to be
And (3) substituting the initial and final state constraints into constraint conditions of the time and fuel optimal model, namely formula (20) and formula (26), and converting the established time and fuel optimal model into a two-point boundary value problem.

by directly solving the problem of two-point boundary values, the obtained initial value of the coordination state and the total startup duration are as follows:
bringing the coordination initial value and the total startup duration of the formula (33) back to the fourth step to obtain a low thrust position holding control law;

Step five: solving the two-point boundary value problem in the step four by a collaborative initial value guessing method, and substituting the result into the time optimal and fuel optimal control law of the low thrust position maintenance:
step 5.1: calculating the pulse thrust delta V required by position maintenance through the deviation of the number of the initial and final orbits*5.987m/s and the position of action of the impulse thrust
And step 5.2: searching involving impulsive thrust action longitudeSo that the satellite can complete and apply the pulse thrust delta V*Position maintenance with same effect after 5.987m/s and recording of continuous thrust arc of right ascension and shutdownAnd total time duration at of start-up*47649 s; by means of continuous thrust Fconst200mN and mid point of arc segmentCalculating the corresponding covariates

step six: and D, applying the position maintaining control law in the step five to realize the low-thrust long-term position maintaining of the geostationary orbit satellite.
By comparing the formulas (33) and (34), the total starting time using the collaborative initial value guessing method disclosed by the invention is obviously shorter than the total starting time obtained by directly solving the two-point boundary value problem, and the fuel consumption is less if the time is short, so that the collaborative initial value guessing method disclosed by the invention has better performance.
Fig. 5 shows a schematic diagram of a geostationary orbit satellite in a phase plane (λ,) The complete trajectory of (2). The drift section 1 represents a first section of drift trajectory of the satellite from the initial position in an uncontrolled state, when the satellite reaches the upper boundary lambda-60 DEG of the fixed point window, which is 0.1 DEG, if the uncontrolled state is continuously maintained, the satellite drifts out of the fixed point window, which is 0 DEG-60 DEG-0.1 DEG, so that the satellite is maneuvered to the initial point of the drift section 1 by adopting the thrust section 1; then, a second section of drift trajectory can be formed continuously in an uncontrolled state until the satellite reaches the upper limit lambda-60 degrees of the fixed point window again, namely 0.1 degree, and then second small thrust control is implemented to form a thrust section 2; the above steps are repeated in a circulating way to form a long-term position keeping strategy for the in-plane motion of the satellite in the stationary orbit.
Fig. 6 shows a geostationary orbit satellite positioned at phi 0.5 deg. in a phase plane (lambda,) The complete trajectory of (2). The drift section 1 represents a first section of drift trajectory of the satellite in an uncontrolled state from an initial position, and the motion trend is to reduce phi from 0.5 degrees to phi approximately equal to 0 degrees and then increase phi to 0.5 degrees; if the satellite keeps an uncontrolled state, the satellite drifts out a fixed point window with phi being more than or equal to 0 degree and less than or equal to 0.5 degree, so that the thrust section 1 is adopted to change the variation trend of phi; then the satellite can continue to form a second section of drift trajectory in an uncontrolled state until the satellite reaches the upper bound phi of the fixed point window again to be 0.5 degrees, and then second small thrust control is implemented to form a thrust section 2; the above steps are repeated in a circulating way, and a long-term position keeping strategy for out-of-plane motion of the satellite in the stationary orbit is formed.
Table 4 shows the performance index of the position keeping method designed by the present invention. Conventional low thrust position holding methods aim to overcome environmental perturbations, so the control frequency is once a day or even many times a day. In the method for maintaining the low-thrust long-term position of the geostationary orbit satellite disclosed by the embodiment, the control period is greatly prolonged by utilizing the periodic rule of the long-term uncontrolled motion of the satellite, and the prolonging of the control period means that the labor cost and equipment loss of the ground satellite measurement and control station for implementing satellite control are further reduced. Taking the example of a geostationary orbit satellite pointed at 0 ≦ λ -60 ≦ 0.1 °, 0 ≦ φ ≦ 0.5 °, the period of longitude control is one month (31.82 days) and the period of latitude control is even more than one year (433 days). Therefore, the method can realize the long-term position maintenance of the stationary orbit satellite with low thrust and has better control performance compared with the traditional method.
