Real-Time Model Predictive Control Algorithms for Autonomous Spacecraft Guidance
This report studies and compares four families of Model Predictive Control (MPC) algorithms for autonomous spacecraft rendezvous guidance: Linear MPC, Tube MPC, Fast/Embedded MPC, and Successive Convexification (SCvx). Using the Clohessy-Wiltshire-Hill (CWH) relative-motion model, we show that the marginal stability of...
