Abstract :
With the combination of dragging force and little driving force, it is the most energy saving method for the spacecraft to transfer. For the initial design of this kind transferring problem, in this paper, is it proposed the designing of based on dragging force and little driving force about the spacecraft transferring in orbits. The method matches the necessary impetus and direction of the spacecraft entering its orbit with the dragging force, and mainly using the dragging force, to reduce the energy consumption in the process of spacecraft orbit transferring, therefore, the spacecraft can access to the specified target orbit and finish the tasks. This paper uses the data provided by the STK analysis module, makes the simulation design of spacecraft orbit transferring, and provides data to support the further research realization of the mobile platform applications of space capabilities.
