Nonlinear Augmented Proportional Navigation for Midrange Rendezvous Guidance and Performance Assessment

Guidance systems are important to autonomous rendezvous with uncooperative targets such as an active debris removal (ADR) mission. A novel guidance frame is established in rotating line-of-sight (LOS) coordinates, which resolves the coupling effect between pitch and yaw planes in a general 3D scenar...
