摘要
The semi-direct collocation method is adopted for solving the pursuit-evasion problem with fixed time-horizon. A new numerical way to solve the optimal control strategies of the pursuit and evasion spacecraft is proposed such that a two-point boundary value problem is not necessary to be solved. Under the assumption of the continuous low-thrust, the procedure solving such a pursuit-evasion problem is given with the payoff of the terminal distance of two spacecraft. In such a numerical method, the differential game is reduced to an optimal control problem according to the semi-transformation. Then, by the Gauss-Lobbato collocation method the optimal control problem is reduced to a nonlinear programming problem which is solved by the sequential quadratic programming method. Such a semi-direct collocation method does not need to solve the necessary condition (a two-point boundary value problem) for the optimal strategies of the differential games, and it is numerically stable. The numerical simulation result shows the optimal control strategies and the associated pursuit-evasion trajectory for a pursuit-evasion problem of spacecraft. © 2019, Editorial Dept. of JA.
