Analytic Calculation and Application of the Q-Law Guidance Algorithm Partial Derivatives

The closed-loop Q-Law guidance algorithm has been shown to be a very capable and efficient method for producing low-thrust trajectories. This paper poses a Q-Law optimization problem for computing locally optimal gain values and for enforcing nonlinear constraints on the initial state using nonlinea...
