Abstract :
After generating reference trajectory in the process of reentry guidance for reusable launch vehicle, if the designed bank angle curve is too close to the constraint boundary, there is a great possibility for the obtained reference trajectory to exceed the reentry corridor boundary. This paper proposed a margin searching method, to reduce the likelihood of generating a reference trajectory which exceeds the reentry corridor boundary and to improve the design success rate.
