Popis
Shrnutí:A multi-constrained suboptimal guidance method based on an improved zero-effort-miss/zero-effort-velocity (ZEM/ZEV) algorithm and the recently developed model predictive static programming (MPSP) is presented in this paper for lunar pinpoint soft landing. Firstly, the ZEM/ZEV algorithm is improved so that the trajectories generated by the algorithm are always above the surface of the Moon without thrust magnitude and look-angle constraints violated. A concept of virtual control is introduced for the continuity of the guidance commands and the enforcement of the thrust vector constraint at the terminal point. Taking the trajectory generated by the improved ZEM/ZEV algorithm as the initial guess history of the MPSP method, and the virtual control history as its control history, we develop a multi-constrained fuel suboptimal powered descent guidance law with the help of the high computational efficiency of the MPSP technique. Extensive simulations are conducted to verify the design features of the algorithm. The testing results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is accurate and robust, and has a good capability of retargeting.
