Cooperative Rendezvous
View through CrossRef
Cooperative rendezvous involves two thrusting spacecraft. Optimal continuous thrust trajectories and impulsive thrust terminal maneuvers are analysed. Orbital rendezvous typically involves one thrusting (active) vehicle and one coasting (passive) target vehicle. However, a cooperative rendezvous can result in propellant savings if the masses and propulsive capabilities of the two vehicles are comparable.
