  • Abstract
    This paper presents controlling parameters of a Hall thruster with simple performance maps. As a result of performance experiments, the anthers have achieved the over 36% thrust efficiency of the Hall thruster. We propose the optimal control method for thrust efficiency within a stable operation zone on the performance maps.
