OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS OF TIME-OPTIMAL MANEUVERING FOR IMAGING SPACECRAFT

There is currently a gap in translating the performance enhancements made possible by new maneuver strategies into operational benefits derived for spacecraft missions. In the context of imaging satellites, slew time is one of the key factors that influences the economic performance of image collect...
